This book opens discussion about uncertainty in model parameters, model specifications, and model-driven forecasts in a way that standard statistical risk measurement does not. And unlike current machine learning-based methods, the framework presented here allows you to measure risk in a fully-Bayesian setting without losing the structure afforded by parametric risk and asset-pricing models. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eRecognize the assumptions embodied in classical statistics\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eQuantify model risk along multiple dimensions without backtesting\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eModel time series without assuming stationarity\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eEstimate state-space time series models online with simulation methods\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eUncover uncertainty in workhorse risk and asset-pricing models\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eEmbed Bayesian thinking about risk within a complex organization\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eIgnoring uncertainty in risk modeling creates an illusion of mastery and fosters erroneous decision-making.
