Description: | Has risk modelling and risk management lost its way? Professor Stefan Scholtes argues that contrary to popular belief, the risk management models in use today are not too simple - they are in fact far too complex. The goal of risk modelling, he says, is not and should never be to replicate a complex reality in a complex model. The fundamental flaw in using risk modelling in this way has been clearly revealed by the banking crisis. What we need, he argues, is a complementary balance between modelling and intuition; models that relate to and enforce our mental abilities, not replace them. |
