The archive "Navigating Financial Risk: A Guide to Market Risk Management" explores the history of financial volatility, starting with the Bretton Woods system and its eventual collapse, leading to an era of floating exchange rates and instability. This turbulence caused significant problems for companies, demonstrating the need for managing financial risks.
The archive argues for the urgent need to establish a Market Risk Committee within companies. This committee is crucial for diagnosing risk exposure, implementing mitigation strategies (such as currency hedges and liability management), and conducting stress tests.
The Committee should be composed of internal and external members, and its operation should be continuous, with periodic evaluations of the strategies. The creation of this committee is considered essential for the survival and growth of companies in an uncertain global financial environment, and its absence is seen as a lack of professionalism. The committee should also strive to mitigate the impact of unforeseen risks.
