Financial Institutions Management: A Risk Management Approach (McGraw-Hill/Irwin Series in Finance, Insurance and Real Estate)

Saunders and Cornett's "Financial Institutions Management: A Risk Management Approach 7th edition" provides an innovative approach that focuses on managing return and risk in modern financial institutions. The central theme of this book, is that the risks faced by financial institutions managers and the methods and markets through which these risks are managed are becoming increasingly similar whether an institution is chartered as a commercial bank, a savings bank, an investment bank, or an insurance company. Although the traditional nature of each sector's product activity is analyzed, a greater emphasis is placed on new areas of activities such as asset securitization, off-balance-sheet banking, and international banking.
