(COMPULSORY - no exam or case corrected otherwise)
 
  EMAILINGS Please ALWAYS include the following subject in your emails:
"RiskMgt 2013 - subject"
 
  FINAL CASE
  • The case must be submitted in groups of 4-5 people.
  • It will have to be handled by email to the professor, by the day of the exam the latest.
  • The deliverable will consist in an Excel spreadsheet that must obey to the principles elicited during the course, clearly structured and documented and in a style easily understandable by any counterparty.
 
  FINAL CASE
(Q&A, following questions asked)
  • The column "Price [Buyprc]" is the price at which the position was bought, in the original currency.
  • The column "Current Value (BC) [Valccy]" is the current valuation in "base currency" or the valuation currency, i.e. here the EUR. That's why the ASOS position has clearly a different value in the two columns.
