Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The journal Risks is delighted to announce a new Special Issue entitled “Risk Management for Capital Markets”. This Special Issue aims to explore the contemporary theories and practices associated with risk management for capital markets.
Risk management involves the practices of identifying, addressing, and monitoring the risks associated with investment and business operations decisions. Sound risk management practices are relevant to practitioners’ cost of capital, financial performance, and solvency in capital markets; in addition, the collective risk management practices executed by all capital market practitioners can further affect the stability of the financial systems. In order to implement risk management decisions, in addition to existing instruments such as financial derivatives and reinsurance, alternative risk transfer (ART) solutions, which involve the securitization of risk, are gaining popularity. We therefore invite researchers and practitioners to contribute insights and findings on risk management practices for capital markets to this Special Issue.
This Special Issue seeks high-quality, original research articles that address the issues associated with risk management practices for capital markets. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Alternative risk transfer (ART, examples include catastrophic bond, sidecar, insurance option, index-based insurance)
- Enterprise risk management (ERM) and risk governance;
- ESG and climate risk management;
- Financial derivatives and reinsurance;
- Financial risk management;
- Insurance operations – actuarial analysis, investment, and financial management;
- Regulations of financial institutions;
- Risk transmissions and financial stability.
