This text provides a rigorous but accessible introduction to the mathematical theory of risk measures, an indispensable tool to quantitatively assess risks of financial transactions. Requiring only a standard background in probability, it can be used for self-study or form the basis of a graduate-level course.
Providing comprehensive yet accessible coverage, this is the first graduate-level textbook dedicated to the mathematical theory of risk measures. It explains how economic and financial principles result in a profound mathematical theory that allows us to quantify risk in monetary terms, giving rise to risk measures. Each chapter is designed to match the length of one or two lectures, covering the core theory in a self-contained manner, with exercises included in every chapter. Additional material sections then provide further background and insights for those looking to delve deeper. This two-layer modular design makes the book suitable as the basis for diverse lecture courses of varying length and level, and a valuable resource for researchers.

Ilya Molchanov is Professor of Probability at the University of Bern, having previously worked at the University of Glasgow. He specialises in stochastic geometry. He authored 'Theory of Random Sets' (2017) and co-authored 'Random Sets in Econometrics' (2018) with Francesca Molinari, discussing the econometric applications of his work at the interface between probability theory and convex geometry. Johanna Ziegel is Professor of Statistics at ETH Zurich, having previously worked at the University of Bern. Her expertise is statistical forecasting theory and applications, mainly in finance and meteorology.
