From the Inside Flap

‘The current worldwide financial crisis also puts its finger on Risk Management, and this at all levels of the bank internal control and external supervisory chain. No doubt one of the weaknesses of the current system in place is its extreme silo thinking. The authors are to be congratulated on trying to break free from this intellectual as well as practical deadlock by presenting a much more holistic approach. No doubt all interested in Risk Management will learn a lot from reading this book.’

Paul Embrechts, Department of Mathematics and RiskLab, ETH Zurich"

‘A great work of unification and simplification. Contrary to most books who like stressing the complexity of financial analysis, this book demonstrates a  reality which is much simpler than otherwise presented. Once the correct building blocks and structures are set, different fields of finance as diverse as accounting and option pricing disclose their unifying roots and a complexity, that is manageable. This is the right kind of simplification revealing a sign of intelligence. This book gives the reader a comprehensive view of the generation of risk and revenue from financial contracts to institution level.’

Julien Delbet, Head of Asset & Liability Management, Retail Banking, Société Générale.

‘The authors present an integrated framework that emphasizes the commonalities rather than the differences between various approaches to financial analysis. In the process, the book bridges numerous practical and conceptual gaps between financial theory, risk analysis, management/control, and accounting, and yet still manages to avoid bogging down in arcane vocabulary or unnecessary technical detail. Readers ranging from financial practitioners and risk managers to IT professionals will benefit from giving this book a serious read.’

Christopher L. Culp, Adjunct Professor of Finance, The University of Chicago Booth School of Business, and Honorarprofessor, Universität Bern, Institut für Finanzmanagement

From the Back Cover

‘Unified Financial Analysis’ arrives at the right time, in the midst of the current financial crisis where the call for better and more efficient financial control cannot be overstated. The book argues that from a technical perspective, there is no need for more, but for better and more efficiently organized information.

The title demonstrates that it is possible with a single but well organized set of information and algorithms to derive all types of financial analysis. This reaches far beyond classical risk and return or profitability management, spanning all risk categories, all valuation techniques (local GAAP, IFRS, full mark-to-market and so on) and static, historic and dynamic analysis, just to name the most important dimensions.

The dedication of a complete section to dynamic analysis, which is based on a going concern view, is unique, contrasting with the static, liquidation-based view prevalent today in banks. The commonly applied arbitrage-free paradigm, which is too narrow, is expanded to real world market models. The title starts with a brief history of the evolution of financial analysis to create the current industry structure, with the organisation of many banks following a strict silo structure, and finishes with suggestions for the way forward from the current financial turmoil.

  Throughout the book, the authors advocate the adoption of a ‘unified financial language’ that could also be the basis for a new regulatory approach. They argue that such a language is indispensable, if the next regulatory wave – which is surely to come – should not end in an expensive regulatory chaos.

‘Unified Financial Analysis’ will be of value to CEOs and CFOs in banking and insurance, risk and asset and liability managers, regulators and compliance officers, or anyone with a stake in the finance industry.
