Résumé anglais Risk Management by Credit Establishments, by Jean Cordier, Pascal Jacquinot and Dominique Plihon. Over the last ten years, the banking environment has been extensively modified by the liberalization and modernization of the French financial system. Moreover, sharper economic and financial fluctuations have increased the risks faced by banks. In spite of this situation and the growing share taken by market operations, the fact remains that the financial structure of French banks is still largely dictated by a traditional banking intermediation logic. The customary context of the banking firm in monopolistic competition remains suitable for modelling this sector. It should, however, be enhanced to take account of active risk management by banks. In order to cover the risks generated by operations with their clientele, banks are notably driven to define their long-term resource issue policy in an endogenous manner while taking account of the relative costs. Furthermore, they are careful not to allocate an overly large share of their equity capital to share acquisitions.
