Comprehensively revised for the 2026 Edition and mapped to the latest syllabus, this 800-plus-page volume builds a complete, working command of how modern banks identify, measure, price, and control risk—from board-level governance down to the arithmetic on a dealer's blotter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat sets this book apart is that it is not a high-level summary. Across four modules and 25 chapters, it develops each topic from first principles and then carries it through to fully worked numerical solutions, decision tables, and regulatory application. A reader does not merely learn what Value at Risk or duration is; they work through the actual computation—pricing a 10-year zero-coupon bond to ₹456.39, deriving 99% VaR and Expected Shortfall from a 1,000-day P\u0026amp;L series, computing portfolio PVBP, and settling a quarterly swap cash flow. The treatment reaches current frontier material—Expected Shortfall and the Fundamental Review of the Trading Book (FRTB), Extreme Value Theory, Monte Carlo simulation, coherent\/sub-additive risk measures, LCR\/NSFR, ICAAP, and climate-related and conduct risk—well beyond a minimum syllabus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book deliberately pairs conceptual clarity with a practitioner's orientation. It serves as both a structured examination guide for DTIRM candidates and a standing desk reference for treasury and risk professionals, and is designed for effective self-study without classroom support.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book is written for a wide spectrum of readers across banking, treasury, and finance:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul type=\"disc\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDTIRM Candidates\u003c\/strong\u003e preparing for Paper II of the IIBF examination—its primary, intended readership, served by chapter-end objective questions and answer keys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTreasury Professionals and Dealers\u003c\/strong\u003e—front-, middle-, and back-office staff who need a rigorous reference on market, FX, and balance-sheet risk, plus the pricing of bonds and derivatives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRisk Managers and CRO Teams\u003c\/strong\u003e building or running enterprise-wide risk, ALM, and limit frameworks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInternal Auditors, Compliance and Finance Officers\u003c\/strong\u003e working with risk-based internal audit, ICAAP, Basel, and RBI requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegulators and Supervisors\u003c\/strong\u003e who want a single consolidated view of the risk, capital, and supervisory architecture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStudents, Faculty, and Researchers\u003c\/strong\u003e in banking and finance seeking an exam-oriented yet quantitatively serious grounding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn short, it suits anyone—from first-time candidate to seasoned practitioner—who needs both the theory and the applied, computational tools of banking risk management in one place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Present Publication is the 2026 Edition, authored and vetted by Mr Ambarisha Nanda, Former CGM, United Bank of India.
