This chapter will also discuss the theories in terms of the methods used to estimate efficiency, including parametric method as well as non-parametric method. Theories related to different risk indicators used in the current book including credit risk, liquidity risk, security risk as well as capital risk and insolvency risk will be discussed in this chapter. Finally, the conclusion will be provided.
