Handbook of Asset and Liability Management: From Models to Optimal Return Strategies
John Wiley and Sons Ltd, Oct 2007, Pages: 576
This book is a handbook for asset and liability managers. It covers every part of ALM and is quantitative in its approach but an economic explanation is provided for each equation so that it will appeal to all who work in ALM (some mathematical or statistical knowledge is still necessary). The book describes asset and liability management and gives a description of new accounting and reporting principles (IFRS and IAS standards). The next part describes all the inherent risk in a balance sheet, the nature of the risk, the impact on the results, the way to simulate the risk and hedging solutions through quantitative techniques & modelling. The next part of the book is dedicated to technical tools used by ALM managers. The next part concentrates on the description of products present in the balance sheet for example deposit accounts, prepayments, life insurance contracts etc.
The author Alexandre Adam presents a comprehensive guide to Asset and Liability Management. Written from a quantitative perspective with economic explanations, this book will appeal to both mathematicians and non-mathematicians alike as it gives an operational view on the business. Well structured, this book includes essential information on Balance Sheet Items and Products Modeling, Tools for Asset and Liability Managers, as well as Optimal Returns Strategies. Explaining, in detail, all the written and unwritten rules of Asset Liability Management, using up-to-date models and the latest findings, the Handbook of Asset and Liability Management is an essential tool for Asset and Liability Managers both for the present day and the future.
