Analysis of operational risk of banks – catastrophe modelling [PDF]
, 2007 Nowadays financial institutions due to regulation and internal motivations care more intensively on their risks. Besides previously dominating market and credit risk new trend is to handle operational risk systematically. Operational risk is the risk of

Spatially explicit temperature optima improve climate impact assessment of global crop productivity
Nature CommunicationsClimate impact assessments on crop productivity typically rely on globally constant temperature optima, overlooking physiological acclimation across spatial temperature gradients. This limits predictive accuracy under progressive climate warming.

Catastrophe index-linked securities and reinsurance as substituties [PDF]
, 2000 The use of catastrophe bonds (cat bonds) implies the problem of the so called basis risk, resulting from the fact that, in contrast to traditional reinsurance, this kind of coverage cannot be a perfect hedge for the primary’s insured portfolio.
