The science, technology, engineering and mathematics Systemic Risk Management rests on. Each method has a canonical page in the STEM Commons, hosted by GCRI, and a page here on how it is applied in this field.

The Systemic Risk Management STEM foundation is the set of canonical methods its findings depend on, from decision analysis under uncertainty to uncertainty quantification and model validation. For the Consortium, Systemic Risk Management stewards decision analysis under uncertainty as well as scenario design and stress testing. Each method has a canonical STEM Commons page and a page here on its use in the risk management and systemic risk field.

Risk management combines decision analysis and scenario design for choices, probability and uncertainty quantification for estimates, network science for dependencies and resilience engineering for recovery.
When a finding names the methods it depends on, a reader can see its assumptions and limits, and an expert in that method can challenge it.
Each term as this page uses it. Where a standard-setting body defines the term, the wording follows that body.
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| STEM Commons | The shared reference of science, technology, engineering and mathematics methods for the Nexus network, hosted by GCRI, with one canonical page per method and a named steward platform. |
| Steward platform | The platform that maintains the canonical description of a method in the STEM Commons and reviews how other platforms apply it. |
| Decision analysis under uncertainty | Decision analysis under uncertainty provides structured methods for choosing among options when outcomes are uncertain and objectives conflict. |
| Scenario design and stress testing | Scenario design and stress testing construct plausible, severe future conditions to examine how systems and institutions would perform. |
The bodies and documents this page is read against. Status and editions change; each link goes to the issuing body.
The current service level is R0: information and enquiries. An enquiry receives a reference and names the next step; applications, payments, compute allocations and registrations open only when their team, terms and review capacity exist.
