1) Wall Street increasingly embraced sophisticated mathematics and modeling in the 1980s and 1990s as quantitative hedge funds produced large gains and investment banks transitioned to using mathematics as a competitive advantage over traditional judgment.
2) Models were used for options pricing, relative value trading, portfolio theory, default probabilities, loss forecasting, credit default swaps, value-at-risk, capital adequacy, and debt ratings. However, the models made erroneous assumptions that distributions were normal and correlations were stable, failed to capture non-linear outcomes, and did not include scenarios of falling housing prices.
3) To prevent future crises, the author argues for realigning incentives to discourage excessive risk-taking, requiring trials of
Traditionally, quantitative finance practitioners are divided into two populations: those who seek fair values, i.e. means of price distributions, and those who seek risk measures, i.e. quantiles of price distributions. Fair value people and risk people typically live in separate lands, and worship different gods: the profit and loss balance sheet, and regulatory capital, respectively.
Prudent Valuation is a rather unexplored midland which has recently emerged somewhere in between the well known mainlands of Pricing and Risk Management. In fact, the Capital Requirements Regulation (CRR), requires financial institutions to apply prudent valuation to all fair value positions. The difference between the prudent value and the fair value, called Additional Valuation Adjustment (AVA), is directly deducted from the Core Equity Tier 1 (CET1) capital. The Regulatory Technical Standards (RTS) for prudent valuation proposed by the EBA have been adopted by the EU (reg. 2016/101) on 28th Jan. 2016.
The 90% confidence level required by regulators for prudent valuation links quantiles of price distributions (exit prices) to capital, thus bridging the gap between the Pricing and Risk Management mainlands, and forcing the crossbreeding of the fair value and risk populations above.
In this seminar, we will explore the Prudent Valuation land.

Competition and financial sector regulation in Malawi: to whom it may concern...IFPRIMaSSP
The study is premised on the central hypothesis that high market concentration in the banking sector can facilitate collusive pricing outcomes which can adversely impact the low-income and important but low-return segments of the economy and activities. The empirical results reported here are based on the period from January 2005 to March 2014 i.e. long after financial sector liberalization and after much new bank entry. From a policy and regulatory perspective there is no support for the expectation that market de-concentration would moderate margins as a result of competitive pricing on both the lending and deposit sides. The two-bank dominance in the sector and non-requirement for posting maximum lending rates have facilitated collusion on lending rates through price-leadership while smaller banks seeking market footholds have been leading the competition on deposits rates. In this context an environment of already high bank rates has moderated margins from the deposit side, which is good for the low-income. Other results also suggest non-price “monopolistic” competitiveness service provision and extension which would also be beneficial to consumers. But even the trend on lending rates is breaking away from leadership-followership as banks are compelled towards the Basel II standards and their tougher risk management and transparency requirements. Although margins do not appear to respond to inflationary tendencies, the actual spreads do so positively, inflicting a double blow on consumers through higher lending rates and/ suppressed deposit rates. From the banks’ side the major hurdles are seen as lack of a long-term securities market to provide bench marking especially for deposit rates and that the push towards the Basel II is itself unnecessary at this stage as it raises both costs and liquidity risk.

The Best way to do PEST Analysis
This slideshow provides a brief tutorial on a new diagrammatic method, developed at the world famous Henley Business School in the UK.
The new method overcomes some of the major weaknesses of traditional PEST /‘PESTLE (Political, Economic, Social, Technological, Legal, Environmental) analysis. Traditional PESTLE tends to generate a random list of unrelated facts – not very useful for understanding your business, developing strategy or convincing other business leaders.
We show how you can use the PESTLEWeb method to tell a clear and compelling ‘story’ that leads from key issues to business threats and opportunities.
PESTLEWeb is supported by a new tool at www.PESTLEWeb.com. The new web-based tool helps you create great graphics and enables the automatic generation of outline reports and tabulated data to support your paper or presentation.
There was a man who made a living selling balloons at a fair. He had all colors of
balloons, including red, yellow, blue, and green. Whenever business was slow, he would
release a helium-filled balloon into the air and when the children saw it go up, they all
wanted to buy one. They would come up to him, buy a balloon, and his sales would go up
again. He continued this process all day. One day, he felt someone tugging at his jacket.
He turned around and saw a little boy who asked, "If you release a black balloon, would
that also fly?" Moved by the boy's concern, the man replied with empathy, "Son, it is not
the color of the balloon, it is what is inside that makes it go up."
The same thing applies to our lives. It is what is inside that counts. The thing inside of us
that makes us go up is our attitude.
Have you ever wondered why some individuals, organizations, or countries are more
successful than others?
It is not a secret. These people simply think and act more effectively. They have learned
how to do so by investing in the most valuable asset--people. I believe that the success
of an individual, organization or country, depends on the quality of their people.
I have spoken to executives in major corporations all over the world and asked one
question: "If you had a magic wand and there was one thing you would want changed,
that would give you a cutting edge in the marketplace resulting in increased productivity
and profits, what would that be?" The answer was unanimous. They all said that if people
had better attitudes, they'd be better team players, and it'd cut down waste, improve
loyalty and, in general, make their company a great place to work.
William James of Harvard University said, "The greatest discovery of my generation is
that human beings can alter their lives by altering their attitudes of mind."
Experience has shown that human resources is the most valuable asset of any business.
It is more valuable than capital or equipment. Unfortunately, it is also the most wasted.
People can be your biggest asset or your biggest liability.
TQP--TOTAL QUALITY PEOPLE
Having been exposed to a number of training programs, such as customer service,
selling skills, and strategic planning, I have come to the conclusion that all these are
great programs with one major challenge: None of them works unless they have the right
foundation, and the right foundation is TQP. What is TQP? TQP is Total Quality People--
people with character, integrity, good values, and a positive attitude.
Don't get me wrong. You do need all the other programs, but they will only work when
you have the right foundation, and the foundation is TQP. For example, some customer
service programs teach participants to say "please," and "thank-you," give smiles and
handshakes. But how long can a person keep on a fake smile if he does not have the
desire to serve? Besides, people can see through him. And if the smile is not sincere, it is
irritating. My point is, there has to be sub.

The European Unemployment Puzzle: implications from population agingGRAPE
We study the link between the evolving age structure of the working population and unemployment. We build a large new Keynesian OLG model with a realistic age structure, labor market frictions, sticky prices, and aggregate shocks. Once calibrated to the European economy, we quantify the extent to which demographic changes over the last three decades have contributed to the decline of the unemployment rate. Our findings yield important implications for the future evolution of unemployment given the anticipated further aging of the working population in Europe. We also quantify the implications for optimal monetary policy: lowering inflation volatility becomes less costly in terms of GDP and unemployment volatility, which hints that optimal monetary policy may be more hawkish in an aging society. Finally, our results also propose a partial reversal of the European-US unemployment puzzle due to the fact that the share of young workers is expected to remain robust in the US.
