Recenzii
Many important areas of modern finance lack that one solid, unbiased book that tells both the novice everything he or she needs to know about the subject, brings a coherent structure, and important, fresh insights to seasoned practitioners. Daniel Wagner has brought the world the go-to book on country risk analysis. Managing Country Risk provides a broad, deep, and accurately detailed analysis of country risk analysis tools and techniques in a volume unlike any I have read before. It is both timely and likely to enjoy a long shelf life.
—Jeffrey Christian, Managing Director, CPM Group and author of Commodities Rising
Daniel Wagner has written an excellent, thought provoking, and well-crafted book that speaks directly to the needs of financial professionals tasked with navigating the complex world of cross-border risk analysis. Investment managers, commercial lenders, risk managers, and members of senior management will all benefit from the insights in this book, which provide the tools needed to make stronger, better, and more holistic global investment decisions.
—Peter Went, Vice President, Global Association of Risk Professionals Research Center
Wagner carefully sorts through the fundamental principles of country risk management, adding context with examples from his quarter century as a political risk insurance underwriter, country risk manager and advisor. The chapter on political risk insurance is the best comprehensive description of the product that I have seen. This book is an invaluable tool for the scholar and practitioner alike in understanding country risk and the techniques available to international investors and traders to address those risks.
—Frederick E. Jenney, Partner, Project Finance & Development Group, Morrison & Foerster, Washington D.C.
The first book that combines easily understood text, insightful analysis, and effective strategies to minimize the risks inherent in cross-border business transactions. I consider this book a must read for anyone charged with managing country risk.
—Mark T. Williams, Executive-in-Resident/Master Lecturer, Boston University School of Management, and author of Uncontrolled Risk: The Lessons of Lehman Brothers and How Systemic Risk Can Still Bring Down the World Financial System
I found great value in Daniel Wagner's approach of combining 101 subject matter with graduate level country risk concepts, and was fascinated with the practical examples he used to drive the points home. I would think that this book would be of great value to a widely varied audience, including CEOs, CFOs, risk managers, directors of multinational boards, insurance underwriters and brokers, academics, and public sector practitioners.
—Rod Morris, Vice President of Insurance, Overseas Private Investment Corporation
... a marvelous exploration of a mind trained to integrate all information on all subjects into a coherent viewpoint that produces a business decision. After a long career practicing this kind of thinking in both the public and private sectors, Wagner’s approach, and this book, are a treasure.
—Dr. Paul Armington, President, World Institute for Leadership and Management in Africa
Managing Country Risk, by Daniel Wagner who has had years of experience in cross-border risk management, is a ‘must have ready’ reference and reality guide for any trader, investor, lender or NGO considering any cross-border activity. … a very digestible book … . As you prepare for your sojourn abroad, be sure to pack your well read copy of Managing Country Risk which should include your own marginal notes reminding you what to ask and do in order to thoroughly evaluate your own observations and the information you are given.
