Building on the Market Risk 101 presentation at the 2023 IECA fall conference, Market Risk 201: Risk Measures will cover a brief history of market risk, followed by discussions of Value-at-Risk, Expected Tail Loss, Earnings-at-Risk, and Stress Testing. Each section will explain the measure's concept, provide an example, and discuss its strengths and weaknesses. Designed to be accessible to all energy risk professionals and not just market risk specialists, this webinar will cater to varying levels of expertise.

Why the IECA?

Being a member of the IECA has allowed me to access a wealth of knowledge regarding different aspects of risk management and I have been able to apply this newly-acquired knowledge to my work. Interacting with other members during the different calls and initiatives is what I enjoy the most. The exchange of ideas and knowledge can be quite refreshing. My favorite memory is likely to be my first attendance at an IECA Conference because I felt welcome and appreciated despite being a "newbie" and not knowing anybody. I would recommend joining the IECA to expand your knowledge with regards to risk management and your network.
