My takeaway: stop using what we know doesn’t work, start using or learning about what we know does work, and measure the performance of risk management scientifically. Most important of all, quit fooling yourself! Most methods make us feel better without actually improving over the long run our estimates and decisions.
I am making this required reading for everyone on my team.
The 4th chapter of the book is the “Why It’s broken” section and it starts with an interesting classification of methods based on what he calls the “Four Horseman” of risk management: the actuaries, the war quants, the economists, and the management consultants. All approached the problem in different ways but some were influenced by others. The stand out of this group are the management consultants who like to develop methods in less than scientific ways and seem to be the least aware of other methods. Yet, it is the management consultants that have the most influence on Chief Risk Officers.
Hubbard then systematically debunks several risk management methods that I have personally seen employed. I can vouch for Hubbard’s observation that these methods seem to improve confidence in decisions without actually making the track records of decision makers any better. He criticizes well-known methods in finance but also much softer methods.
Doug Hubbard really knows his stuff. He is not just an author who has learned enough about a current popular topic to write a book, but instead is a talented consultant in this area, who has learned how to write, and write well. He displays a deep real world understanding that ranges from mathematics to everyday human behavior, a trait that is all too rare in this age of specialization.
Because this subject is poorly understood by the public at large, many “accepted” risk management procedures, both qualitative and quantitative are fundamentally flawed. Doug has the experience to know what actually works.
