The article deals with the ways of obtaining income by banks. In modern conditions, taking into account the lessons and consequences of the global financial crisis, the regulator sets increasingly high requirements for the management and capital management system in credit institutions in the financial and banking services markets. In this regard, the number of banks that seek to improve the risk management system in order to bring it in line with the best foreign practices is constantly increasing. However, only a few Russian credit institutions have the necessary sources for calculating economic capital and its adequacy ratios. And only a few (mostly subsidiaries of large foreign banks) are able to make payments in accordance with international best practices. The ability to calculate economic capital, that is, the largest possible loss for a given time horizon, calculated with a set confidence interval, characterizes the high level of quality of the risk management system. The problems of increasing the profitability of commercial banks in the Russian Federation are also disclosed.

The study examined the impact of financial risk management practices on the financial performance of commercial banks in Botswana. The study used Return on Asset and Return on Equity to measure financial performance. Inflation, Interest rates, total debt to total assets, total debt to total equity, total equity to total assets and loan deposit ratios were used as proxies for financial risk management. The research population was all the 10 commercial banks in Botswana and the study covered a period of 8 years from 2011 to 2018. This descriptive study sourced monthly secondary data from Bank of Botswana Financial Statistics database. Descriptive statistics, correlation and regression analyses were applied to analyze the data. The results from regression analysis showed that interest rates had a negative and significant impact on return on assets and on return on equity. On the other hand, total debt to total assets showed a negative and insignificant effect on return on assets. However, total debt to total assets, revealed a positive and insignificant effect on return on equity. The loan deposit ratio indicated a negative and significant impact on return on assets and on return on equity. Findings suggest that banks should strike a proper balance between financial risk management practices and financial performance by engaging in appropriate market, credit, and liquidity risk management practices that will ensure safety for their banks and yield positive profits.

Exchange Risk

After the adoption of International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards (widely known as Basel II requirements) in 2004 the risk management in commercial banks has changed dramatically. Lithuanian commercial banks are in transitional period now adapting their risk management systems to Basel II requirements. Market risk is considered one of the key risks in bank risk management structure, so proper management of market risk is essential for a modern bank. Currency exchange risk usually is the main component of market risk. Currency exchange risk management in Lithuanian commercial banks was not good enough; also the Central Bank's regulatory limits were liberal. But after the adoption of Basel II requirements, the entire risk management system is transforming and currency exchange risk management is affected. The objective of this paper is to demonstrate the transformations of currency exchange in Lithuanian commercial banks and propose an effective model for commercial banking. These transformations are performed in the regulatory system imposed by the Central Bank of Lithuania and through transformations of the bank's internal risk management system moving to internal (usually VaR based) models. VaR models are considered as modern methods for risk management. These models proposed by Central bank or other authorities for internal and statutory risk management in commercial banks. In this article, the proposed variation‐covariation VaR model was tested with real data using the back‐testing method. Back‐testing showed that the proposed model is reliable enough, because the number of mismatches was less than 5 % in all tested currency pairs during all testing. In most currency pairs mismatches percentage was lower than 3 %. Back‐testing results confirm that the VaR method is reliable enough for day‐to‐day using by financial institutions and traders.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the role of crop insurance among Hungarian crop farmers and the responses to the introduction of the two-scheme risk management system. Specifically, first, it examines the economic and environmental factors affecting the willingness of farmers to contract crop insurance. Second, it reveals the relationship between having crop insurance and technical efficiency of crop producing farms. Design/methodology/approach Probit models of panel data are applied to explore the factors of insurance decisions. The relationship between efficiency and insurance is investigated with two-stage data envelopment analysis (DEA) model with double bootstrap using panel data for the 2001 to 2014 period. Findings The results of Probit model estimations show that the education, the size, the indebtedness of crop producing farms and the new two-scheme risk management system are in positive correlation, while the concentration of farming activity are in negative correlation with the crop insurance contracting. The estimations of two-stage DEA model reveal that crop producing farms with an agricultural insurance contract are more efficient than the farmers without using this risk management tool. Originality/value Empirical investigation of the influencing factors of agricultural insurance demand in Hungary and the examination of the relationship between insurance and technical efficiency may contribute to the development of Hungarian risk management system.

Purpose of research. The article deals with the problems of forming a business environment in foreign trade, taking into account the construction of a risk-based compliance management model by controlling state bodies. The purpose of the study is to establish and identify the features of identifying risks of participants in foreign economic activity and the state in the calculation and administration of customs payments, respectively. This is necessary not only for the administration of customs duties and taxes, but also for determining the main directions for the development of foreign trade activities of the Russian Federation. Conclusions. As a result of the research, the author comes to the conclusion that risk management occupies a special place in the system of managing the compliance of foreign trade activities with the criteria established by state regulatory (customs, tax) authorities. However, in addition to managing tax and customs risks, which according to current legislation are recognized as violations of the rules established by law, it is necessary to change the system for evaluating the effectiveness and efficiency of the Supervisory authorities themselves. Currently, the relationship between the risk management system and the violations of customs and other legislation themselves is mostly reduced to the implementation of the customs authorities ' fiscal task. According to the majority of importers, the application of the risk management system has a single goal - to increase the costs of participants in foreign economic activity associated with cross-border movement of goods. On the part of participants in foreign economic activity, it is necessary to restructure the strategy of interaction with regulatory authorities. In these circumstances, the key areas of such interaction are the development of the Institute of authorized economic operators, its sub-Institute of authorized exporters, as well as the creation of a self-regulating organization in the field of foreign trade that represents the interests of not only Russian exporters, but also importers.

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to study the effectiveness of the risk management system in the European context, especially with regard to the risk management committee, the uncertainty of the environment and company performance. In summary, it evaluates European companies listed on the stock exchange in France, Germany and the United Kingdom to determine how risk management systems influence financial companies' performance.Design/methodology/approachTo study the effectiveness of risk management systems and their influence on performance, the large companies selected in our sample are fairly representative of the European market, according to the Dutch indices of each country (SBF 120 in France, HDAX 110 in Germany and FTSE 100 in United Kingdom).The empirical evidence is based on an international quantitative analysis, using a data set involving 320 companies listed on the stock exchange over a ten-year period from 2005 to 2014.FindingsThe results indicate that the establishment of a risk management and control system by a company positively influences its management, and its performance level and value creation also improve. The results of this study demonstrate a significant strengthening of the role of the risk management committee in the three countries. The surveillance function is reinforced, and in particular, the internal control system is accentuated.Research limitations/implicationsThis study has some limitations that can form leads for future research. One of these limitations is the sample size. The authors have represented the European context by three countries that certainly constitute great European powers, but have regulations different from other countries. The company size is also a possible research element. Indeed, risk management system varies between large, small and medium-sized enterprises, so it is important to study each type of company well.Originality/valueThis study identifies the risk management committee as a mechanism of control that is highly important in the company, and it proposes an international framework that comparatively and empirically evaluates how the risk management system used in large European companies can improve their financial performance.
