Financial Markets Evolution

Abstract

The chapter analyses the current state and prospects for the development of risk management systems for financial intermediaries. The risk acceptance, assessment, and management activities are constantly evolving, remaining very sensitive to external and internal factors that increase the risks. The main trends in the development of risk management systems in the field of financial intermediation are rapid technologies evolution, competition intensification, growing needs and demands of customers, emergence of new types of risk, profitability reduction, etc. Risk management requires transforming operating models of financial intermediaries’ business, strengthening the role of the analytical function in decision-making, and adjusting risk appetite. This chapter is devoted to the study of these problems in terms of theory and practice of risk management.
