In response to the coronavirus pandemic, this MOOC is available as an "open archive" : there is no discussion forum, no interaction with the course team and no free certificate of attendance or fee paying certificates will be generated.
The Institut Louis Bachelier - the leading research network in economics and finance, is host since its creation in 2008 of several research programmes dedicated to risk management. Now, the Institut is launching a MOOC (Fundamentals of Financial risk management) in collaboration with PRMIA, the international association of risk management professionals, offering theoretical and practical insights on the fundamentals of financial risk management.
The focus on financial risk management has crystallized in recent years, leading to a need to comprehend, measure and manage a variety of risks (market risks, credit risks, counterparty risk, operational risks). Through the reinforcement of prudential regulations and increased communication requirements, organizations must evolve to adapt to a new regulatory context.
This six session MOOC is the opportunity for you to approach this topic with the help of our two specialists and professionals in the sector, Justin McCarthy and Oscar McCarthy. They will offer you their expertise on risk management, its history, current and future issues. You will discover the different facets of risk management tools and their uses, with a number of case studies. Mixing theory with practice, the MOOC as a whole will allow you to acquire all the knowledge you need on this topic, and you will be delivered a certificate upon completion of the course.
*The Institut Louis Bachelier is a member of PSL - Paris Science et Lettres.
