Financial Risk Management: Applications in Market, Credit, Asset and Liability Management and Firmwide Risk

Acknowledgments

Both authors would like to thank their families for their patience and support during the writing of this book. Jimmy would like to thank his wife, Ann-Louise, and his children, Izabel, Ellen, Nelly, and Leo. Wei would like to thank his wife, June I-Chun, and his daughter, Vivian. We also appreciate the support of our colleagues during the writing of this book. The authors have also benefited from idea exchanges with risk professionals in various seminars and conferences. Since this book is based partly on earlier published risk research, we would also like to thank our previous research coauthors.

Finally, we would also like to thank the Wiley copy editor for the patience in the editing of this book and SAS Institute (our current employer) for allowing us to write this book and granting us the right to use SAS software to develop all the examples in this book. The opinions expressed in this book are, however, those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the view of SAS Institute.
