"What sets Dr. Johnathan Mun's work apart from other writers and practitioners of quantitative risk analysis, is its startling clarity and real practical application to both the real world of risk analysis, and the processes by which we must make decisions under uncertainty. At GECC, we use both Dr. Mun's Risk Simulator and his Real Options software. Every book he has ever written is lined up within easy reach on my office bookshelf. His latest book, written with Morton Glantz, a well-known scholar in International Banking and Risk Management, is another gem. Read The Banker's Handbook on Credit Risk to see what two of he most original thinkers in quantitative risk analysis in the world today have to say about credit risk."
Brian Watt, CRM Chief Risk Officer, Chief Financial Officer, GECC - Certified in Risk Management
