World economy systemic risks and sustainable solutions to mitigate their impact

The Center for Risk Management at Lausanne (CRML) based at HEC Lausanne within UNIL focuses on risk management and quantitative methods in asset management.

ESG Investing

CRML is currently running a major project focused on ESG Investing. Sponsored by Unil and Banque Cantonale Vaudoise, the objective is to investigate the impact of incorporating the ESG dimension on institutional portfolio. As such, the project covers all major asset classes.

Bond markets

Corporate bonds are among the asset classes where ESG considerations can be included. We evaluate the impact of screening methods for building ESG portfolios.

Providing measures

The subprime crisis of 2007 brought the worldwide financial system to the brink of breakdown. Famous rating agencies that should have sent early warning signals failed to do so and therefore proved to be poor monitors of financial markets risks.

Because of the economic hardship a breakdown of financial markets represents, it is of highest importance that objective measures of risk are constructed and made available to the public at large as to avoid future market breakdown.
