C) Risk modeling, easy peasy. Although, I have to say, extreme value theory sounds like something straight out of a sci-fi movie. Maybe we should start a risk modeling club and invite the aliens to join?

Risk modeling, for sure! I mean, who doesn't love playing with market risk and value at risk? It's like a financial version of a roller coaster ride, without the nausea. C) is the answer, no doubt.

Ah, this is a tricky one! I think the answer is C) Risk modeling. We're using all those fancy techniques to create models and forecasts of potential losses. Gotta love those VaR and EVT, am I right?
