The Bank Credit Analysis Handbook

Praise for The Bank Credit Analysis Handbook

“In this second edition, Philippe Delhaise and Jonathan Golin build on their professional experience with Thomson Bank Watch Asia to produce a clear introduction to bank credit risk analysis. As very few books on this topic exist, it is a most welcome publication. The short and transparent chapters are rich on institutional information, building on intuition. It is quite an achievement to analyze bank solvency with no reference to heavy mathematics and statistics. The book covers topics of recent interest such as liquidity risk, sovereign and banking crises, and bank restructuring.”
―Jean Dermine
Professor of Banking and Finance, Chair, INSEAD

“Messrs. Delhaise and Golin have written what must be considered the seminal book on bank credit analysis. Its breadth and scope is reflective of the decades of experience they have in deciphering the core elements of bank credit risk. I found the chapter on country and sovereign risk particularly useful. This book should be considered essential reading for anyone in the field of credit risk analysis.”
― Daniel Wagner
CEO of Country Risk Solutions and author of Managing Country Risk

“This book is an excellent reference for anyone involved in bank risk management. It combines practical tools with case studies. Based on their substantial experience, Golin and Delhaise nicely bridge the gap between theory and practice.”
―André Farber
Professor of Finance, Université Libre de Bruxelles

“Jonathan Golin has done it again. Both he and Philippe Delhaise have taken a very complicated and timely topic and have distilled the subject matter into an easy read that is useful to those directly or indirectly involved with bank credit analysis.”
―Craig Lindsay
Chairman, Hong Kong Securities and Investment Institute

“Messrs. Delhaise and Golin have updated their first edition of this handbook with such a high degree of relevance and insight, on the heels of the 2007–2008 banking crisis, that this reference guide will surely be essential reading for every market participant involved with bank risk analysis. There are few people as qualified to write on this subject as these gentlemen; their experience speaks volumes. Once again, they are to be commended for distilling a complex subject into a practical and useful handbook.”

Aus dem Klappentext

From the United States S&L crisis of the '80s and the Asianbanking crisis of the '90s, to the recent HSBC money launderingscandal and the LIBOR rate fixing scheme, it seems that hardly ayear has gone by over the past three decades that the bankingindustry hasn't made sensational headlines.

While the financial services industry generally, and banks inparticular, continue to provide some of the most attractiveinvestment opportunities in today's global markets, financialanalysts, investment managers, and savvy investors of every stripemust be especially diligent when assessing the fitness of bankinginstitutions. This is no easy feat, considering that the world ofbanking has its own conventions and arcane jargon devised, it wouldseem, to serve no other purpose than to confuse outsiders. It isalso important to note that banks don't operate like other types ofcompanies, and investors attempting to make sense of bank incomestatements and balance sheets can easily become confused, or worse,be led dangerously astray.

Coauthored by a Harvard-trained attorney with years ofexperience at the world's leading specialist bank rating agency anda past president of Thomson BankWatch Asia, The Bank CreditAnalysis Handbook, Second Edition is your hands-on guide to thetheory and practice of bank credit analysis and rating.

• Arm you with an understanding of the reality behind publishedfinancial statements
