The only one of its kind. Unique and immensely practical.
Format: Hardcover
I have read a few books on ERM. Most of these books profess qualitative risk assessment.
None even come close to quantitative definition of risk appetite. Nor do they show you how to quantify risks at enterprise level or incorporate quantitative risk analysis into risk/return decision making.
Only Sim Segal's book on Corporate value of ERM encompasses all of these aspects and much much more.
His methodology of merging risk management and value based management to produce a value-based approach to ERM is both unique and immensely practical. The richness of his experience and knowledge is distilled in every chapter of this excellent book. I am sincerely impressed.
