Praise for The Risk Management Process "True to its claim, The Risk Management Process is a rigorous yet lucid and broadly accessible account of how the timeless principles of corporate finance apply to the management of risk. Written by an experienced consultant with impeccable academic credentials and incisive analytical thinking, this book is a must-read for the senior manager and corporate treasurer who aspire to integrate risk management with corporate financial management and business strategy."–George M. Constantinides, Leo Melamed Professor of Finance, University of Chicago Graduate School of Business "Christopher Culp’s The Risk Management Process: Business Strategy and Tactics is a comprehensive treatment of the issues that face risk managers today. His book constructs a bridge to connect the theory and the practice of risk management, and Culp leads readers over that bridge with great care."–Peter Tufano, Sylvan C. Coleman Professor of Financial Management, Harvard Business School "An unusually simple and lucid analysis of the risk management process. This book will be valuable for anyone trying to manage financial risk."–Ken French, NTU Professor of Finance, Sloan School of Management, MIT "As opposed to offering us another dry, one-size-fits-all, mathematical approach to measuring or managing one risk or another, this book provides a general management approach to this important facet of managing any business in the twenty-first century, yet doesn’t shy away from sharing with the reader the underlying and necessary quantitative thinking that is required to perform the role of financial risk management. Culp easily switches between a statistical approach to risk measurement and a real-world approach to the particular exposure(s). In addition, it was refreshing to see the amount of time he spent on drawing the distinction between managing risk on Wall Street and managing the same risk within a corporation, which may have very different goals and success benchmarks."–Brent Callinicos, CPA, Treasurer, Microsoft Corporation "The Risk Management Process is at the same time scholarly and comprehensive, yet readable, realistic, and insightful. Unquestionably, this is the right book at the right time, destined to become the standard reference work in the field."–Steve H. Hanke, Professor of Applied Economics, Johns Hopkins University, and Chairman, The Friedberg Mercantile Group, Inc.
Praise for "Structured Finance & Insurance" "More and more each year, the modern corporation must decide
what risks to keep and what risks to shed to remain competitive and
to maximize its value for the capital employed. Culp explains the
theory and practice of risk transfer through either balance sheet
mechanism such as structured finance, derivative transactions, or
insurance. Equity is expensive and risk transfer is expensive. As
understanding grows, and, as a result, costs continue to fall, ART
will continue to replace equity as the means to cushion knowable
risks. This book enhances our understanding of ART." "A must-read for everyone offering structured finance as a
business, and arguably even more valuable to any one expected to
pay for such service." "Culp's latest book provides a comprehensive account of the most
important financing and risk management innovations in both
insurance and capital markets. And it does so by fitting these
innovative solutions and products into a single, unified theory of
financial markets that integrates the once largely separate
disciplines of insurance and risk management with the current
theory and practice of corporate finance." "This exciting book is a comprehensive read on alternative
insurance solutions available to corporations. It focuses on the
real benefits, economical and practical, of alternatives such as
captives, rent-a-captive, andmutuals. An excellent introduction to
the very complex field of alternative risk transfer (ART)." "Structured Finance and Insurance transcends Silos to reach the
Enterprise Mountaintop. Culp superbly details integrated, captive,
multiple triggers and capital market products, and provides the
architectural blueprints for enterprise risk innovation."
Based on an enormously popular "derivative instruments and applications" course taught by risk expert Christopher Culp at the University of Chicago, Risk Transfer will prepare both current practitioners and students alike for many of the issues and problems they will face in derivative markets. Filled with in-depth insight and practical advice, this book is an essential resource for those who want a comprehensive education and working knowledge of this major field in finance, as well as professionals studying to pass the GARP FRM exam. Christopher L. Culp, PhD (Chicago, IL), is a Principal at CP Risk Management LLC and is also Adjunct Professor of Finance at the University of Chicago. He is the author of Corporate Aftershock (0-471-43002-1) and The ART of Risk Management (0-471-12495-8).
