Market risk refers to risks arising from movements in the interest rate, exchange rate, stock price, and commodity prices. Market risk includes interest rate risk, currency risk, equity risk, and commodity risk. Banks face market risk when the market value of the financial products owned by banks decreases due to factors that affect the whole market and or to a specific asset. It is essentially the risk arising from changes in the markets in which an organization is exposed. The market risk is different from credit risk, which is the risk of losing money when a counterparty fails to make a promised payment. Identification and measurement of risk are important parts of risk management, as is ensuring that the risks taken are in line with the risk capacity and appetite. Appropriate models are used by banks for managing market risk. Effective risk management include appropriate use of models based on expertise and judgement.
