Can anyone give me a quick rundown on how analysts quantify and assess a companies risk? I have a GS 1st round interview coming up and I want to be prepared for it.
This is the basics of what I know:
Some common metrics are operating cash flow, coverage ratio, debt/equity ratio, debt/assets, debt/ebitda, free cash flow/debt. What else is there?
I'd appreciate all the help.
