Risk Management in Emerging Markets - How to Survive and Prosper [Carl Orlsson][2002].pdf
Understanding risk in emerging markets is a critical success factor for management today. Risk management is about controlled decision making rather than risk avoidance. Balancing risk and reward is increasingly important but reward does not come without risk.
Risk Management in Emerging Markets is primarily concerned with the risks facing long-term investors who put their money in real assets rather than financial ones such as investing in stock markets, but everyone interested in emerging markets will find value in reading this book. It will help open managers’ eyes to risks and provide solutions. It also seeks to answer the question ‘What makes emerging markets different and how does this impact on risk?’ rather than how to make a quick return, as many other books do.

It also seeks to answer the question ‘What makes emerging markets different and how does this impact on risk?’ rather than how to make a quick return, as many other books do.The book addresses in detail the question of ‘What is risk?’ and then covers the basics of identification, measurement and management of risk before considering how things work or don’t work in practice in emerging markets. It also considers recent trends and extrapolates into the future possible developments within the field.
A selection of international case studies and examples from both the corporate and banking sectors highlight key risks in the UK, US and Europe as well as emerging markets. These help illustrate the fact that today’s business world is more integrated, more volatile and more hostile than it has ever been.
Risk Management in Emerging Markets is an essential guide for managers in both non-commercial and commercial organizations, as well as students of risk and risk management.

Carl Olsson is a London-based banker, and is currently a senior manager in the global risk management function for Standard Chartered Bank, a leading emerging markets bank. Prior to taking up this role, he lived and worked for nearly 20 years in emerging markets in the Middle East, India and Asia where he worked with many corporate clients facing the challenge of doing business in emerging markets. In addition to a degree in Economics from Cambridge, he has completed professional banking exams and more recently an MBA from Henley Management College.
"Much needed, practical and very readable. This excellent book will be welcomed by those with business in emerging markets and especially by banks operating in these risk challenging environments."
Tony Jennings, Senior Advisor, Bank Training Centre, World Bank Group Mekong Region
"This book offers a refreshing approach to the appreciation of risk management. Carl is to be congratulated for his practical and novel approach to the subject – an essential read for all students."
Professor Joseph Nellis, Head of Economics Group, Cranfield School of Management
"Carl's lively, comprehensive and refreshingly readable book is built on his extensive practical experience in emerging markets banking. It is characterised by easily understood explanations of the technical concepts, as well as real-life insights and examples, from the Titanic to Thailand, that will often prompt a wry nod of recognition. This is essential reading for positive-minded risk managers in changing markets, whether emerging or developed."
Mick Green, General Manager, Retail Risk, ANZ Banking Group
"There can scarcely have been two more salient concerns for senior managers in multi-national companies over recent years than the management of risk and the exploitation of emerging markets. Carl’s text not only provides a comprehensive introduction to the subject of risk management but also shows how the principles of risk management can, and indeed should be extended to exploiting opportunities in emerging markets."
Ian Turner, Director of Graduate Business Studies, Henley Management College
"In Risk Management in Emerging Markets Carl very clearly helps the reader understand the nature of the unique risks encountered in emerging markets and discusses a variety of methods for managing such risks in a clear and accessible way. The book captures significant practical experience in a field and markets that risk managers can no longer afford to ignore."
