A Minimum Average Risk Solution for the Problem of Choosing the Largest Mean


Book Description

The problem of choosing the largest of n means is considered as a multiple decision problem which is generated from n component two-decision problems. With additive losses Bayes rules for the component problems yield Bayes rules for the multiple decision problem. Some properties of these Bayes rules are found. Also a co servativenear-Bayes rule is presented with tabled values for any number of means. (Author).




Revisiting Risk-Weighted Assets


Book Description

In this paper, we provide an overview of the concerns surrounding the variations in the calculation of risk-weighted assets (RWAs) across banks and jurisdictions and how this might undermine the Basel III capital adequacy framework. We discuss the key drivers behind the differences in these calculations, drawing upon a sample of systemically important banks from Europe, North America, and Asia Pacific. We then discuss a range of policy options that could be explored to fix the actual and perceived problems with RWAs, and improve the use of risk-sensitive capital ratios.




Multiple Decision Procedures


Book Description

An encyclopaedic coverage of the literature in the area of ranking and selection procedures. It also deals with the estimation of unknown ordered parameters. This book can serve as a text for a graduate topics course in ranking and selection. It is also a valuable reference for researchers and practitioners.
