In this book we have introduced and discussed economic capital and financial risk management for financial services firms and conglomerates. A feature of the book is that we have considered a very broad spectrum of financial services businesses, from retail banking and non life insurance at the short end of the risk duration spectrum, to with profits life insurance and pensions at the longer end. The tools and methods that we have developed are, we believe, applicable across this entire risk spectrum and are also appropriate for all types of risks that are collected by financial services firms.
