The number of well-known firms joining the list of entities such as Enron, WorldCom, Sumitomo Corp., all of which lost millions of dollars as a result of inadequate operational risk management systems, increases dramatically with each passing year. This has increased the amount of interest in this marginalised aspect of risk. The quantitative estimation and measurement of operational risk proved necessary with the implementation of new operational risk management strategies in companies and financial institutions. Basel Committee on Banking Supervision recommendations, which request banks to use quantitative methods in their operational risk management are an additional motivation to use quantitative methods of estimating operational risk. This article reviews the most important quantitative methods of estimating and measuring operational risk.Downloads
