Sovereign risk and financial crises play a key role in current international economic developments, particularly in the case of economic downturns. As the Asian economic crisis in the late 1990s revealed once again, financial crises are the rule rather than the exception in capitalist economies. The event also revealed that international public debt agreements are contingent claims. In a world of increasing economic interdependencies, the issues of financial crises and country defaults are of critical importance. This volume goes to the heart of the academic discussion on sovereign risk and financial crises by centering on quantitative-empirical aspects, evaluating prominent approaches, and by proposing new methods. Part I of the volume identifies key factors and processes that are central in analyzing sovereign risk while Part II focuses on the determinants and effects of financial crises.

Dealing with all aspects of risk management that have undergone significant innovation in recent years, this book aims at being a reference work in its field. Different to other books on the topic, it addresses the challenges and opportunities facing the different risk management types in banks, insurance companies, and the corporate sector. Due to the rising volatility in the financial markets as well as political and operational risks affecting the business sector in general, capital adequacy rules are equally important for non-financial companies. For the banking sector, the book emphasizes the modifications implied by the Basel II proposal. The volume has been written for academics as well as practitioners, in particular finance specialists. It is unique in bringing together such a wide array of experts and correspondingly offers a complete coverage of recent developments in risk management.
Mit dem Abschluss der Uruguay-Runde im April 1994 wurde die bis
dahin bestehende Welthandelsordnung GATT nach uber acht Jahren
Verhandlungsdauer neu gestaltet. Dies war erforderlich geworden,
nachdem in den 80er Jahren weltweit protektionistische Tendenzen
aufgetreten waren und sich die Rahmenbedingungen des Welthandels
grundlegend geandert hatten. Die Autoren dieses Bandes beleuchten
die zu erwartenden globalen und regionalen Auswirkungen der
Veranderungen des GATT-Regelwerks. Auf der Basis
wirtschaftstheoretischer Uberlegungen werden neuere
wirtschaftspolitische und quantitative Fragestellungen erortert.
Die zahlreichen Finanz- und Wahrungskrisen der letzten Jahre haben
zu einer Fulle an Reformvorschlagen fur das internationale
Finanzsystem gefuhrt. In diesem Buch werden die wichtigsten
Vorschlage verstandlich dargestellt, systematisiert und grundlich
diskutiert. Werden eher Fragen der mikro- oder makrookonomischen
Governance angegangen? Welche der konkurrierenden Ziele - nationale
Autonomie, Stabilitat der Finanzmarkte oder freier Kapitalverkehr -
stehen im Vordergrund? Wie ist eine mogliche Umsetzung
einzuschatzen?
