The purpose of this course is to equip the students with a general framework for understanding the effects of risk, the tools and methods used to measure and manage risk, the process of making risk management decisions. The course provides a broader knowledge in risk management while the field of insurance is also included. Some specific topics in risk management, such as derivatives or tax effects on risk management will be presented. Institutional details with emphasis on current practices in Taiwan will also be presented. Since the institutional details are constantly changing, our primary goal is to stimulate critical thinking and promote the development of problem solving skills to better prepare students for applying general concepts to new sets of problems, new types of risks, and new institutional structures.
