Multi-criteria modeling of integrated asset & liability management in a commercial bank

Jerzy Michnik

Abstract:

One of the most important category of risk banks face is the financial risk. Asset & Liability Management (ALM) is a set of techniques used to manage financial risk. Growing instability in the financial world made ALM a great challenge for both researchers and practitioners. A basic structure of the ALM model, based on the anticipated cash flows, is constructed. It comprises the main financial risks: interest rate, foreign exchange, liquidity and capital risk. The illustration models which are set up in a framework of the linear programming, deterministic or stochastic, are presented. The simplified cases with simulated data, illustrating the activity of a commercial bank in Poland, are solved with the aid of interactive goal programming.
