So Much Data, So Little Insight
Measurement doesn’t equal managementIt’s too easy to create volumes of dataRisk measurement doesn’t require high performance computing for – Complex instruments– Precise estimates– Large portfolios

Communication
Aphorisms that apply– It’s not just the message, it’s also the medium– It’s not what you say, it’s how you say it– Communication is a two-way street
“Stakeholders” of risk knowledge have unique needs and languages
