PRMIA предлагает семинар по стресс тестированию:
Stress Testing has become an imperative component of risk management due to the fluctuation in financial markets and increase in regulatory requirements. Drawing upon its success in spring 2008, the course is once again offering participants an opportunity to learn how to introduce integrated stress testing into the overall risk management framework.
Topics include:
* a detailed exposition of theory and practice of stress testing
* benchmarking a bank's existing stress testing framework against best-practice
* how to design integrated stress tests that cover different types of risks
* develop stress tests either through a top-down approach (appropriate for smaller banks with less than $10 billion in assets) or bottom-up approach (distinguishing between retail and corporate exposures)
* how to translate stress testing results into actions and communicate them to senior management.
Analyzing case studies through group discussions offers participants a hands-on approach to stress testing methodologies.
