Описание:
The book aims to prioritise what needs mastering and presentsthe content in the most understandable, concise and pedagogical wayillustrated by real market examples. Given the variety and thecomplexity of the materials the book covers, the author sortsthrough a vast array of topics in a subjective way, relying uponmore than twenty years of experience as a market practitioner. Thebook only requires the reader to be knowledgeable in the basics ofalgebra and statistics.
The Mathematical formulae are only fully proven when the proofbrings some useful insight. These formulae are translated fromalgebra into plain English to aid understanding as the vastmajority of practitioners involved in the financial markets are notrequired to compute or calculate prices or sensitivities themselvesas they have access to data providers. Thus, the intention of thisbook is for the practitioner to gain a deeper understanding ofthese calculations, both for a safety reason - it is betterto understand what is behind the data we manipulate - andsecondly being able to appreciate the magnitude of the prices weare confronted with and being able to draft a rough calculation, aside of the market data.
The author has avoided excessive formalism where possible.Formalism is securing the outputs of research, but may, in othercircumstances, burden the understanding by non-mathematicians; anexample of this case is in the chapter dedicated to the basis ofstochastic calculus.
The book is divided into two parts:
First, the deterministic world, starting from the yield curvebuilding and related calculations (spot rates, forward rates, discrete versus continuous compounding, etc.), and continuing withspot instruments valuation (short term rates, bonds, currencies andstocks) and forward instruments valuation (forward forex, FRAs andvariants, swaps & futures);
Second, the probabilistic world, starting with the basis ofstochastic calculus and the alternative approach of ARMA to GARCH, and continuing with derivative pricing: options, second generationoptions, volatility, credit derivatives;
This second part is completed by a chapter dedicated to marketperformance & risk measures, and a chapter widening the scopeof quantitative models beyond the Gaussian hypothesis andevidencing the potential troubles linked to derivative pricingmodels.

Описание: Philip Brown is one of the most admired and respected accounting academics alive today. He was a pioneer in capital markets research in accounting, and his 1968 article, co-authored with Ray Ball, "An Empirical Evaluation of Accounting Income Numbers," arguably had a greater impact on the course of accounting research, directly and indirectly, than any other article during the second half of the twentieth century. Since that time, his innovative research has focused on issues that bridge accounting and finance, including the relationships between net profit reports and the stock market, the long-run performance of acquiring firms, statutory sanctions and voluntary corporate disclosure, and the politics and future of national accounting standards to name a few. This volume brings together the greatest hits of Brown’s career, including several articles that were published in out-of-the-way places, for easier use by students and researchers in the field. With a foreword written by Stephen A. Zeff, and an introduction that discusses the evolution of Brown’s research interests and explains the context for each of the essays included in the volume, this book offers the reader a unique look inside this remarkable 50-year career.

Описание: Clearing houses, or CCPs, were among the very few organisations to emerge from the global financial crisis with their standing enhanced. In the chaotic aftermath of the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers, they successfully completed trades worth trillions of dollars in a multitude of financial instruments across listed and over-the-counter markets, and so helped avert financial Armageddon. That success transformed the business of clearing. Governments and regulators around the world gave CCPs and the clearing services they provide a front-line role in protecting the global economy from future excesses of finance. CCPs, which mitigate risk in financial markets, responded by greatly expanding their activities, notably in markets for over-the-counter derivatives, and often in fierce competition with one another. In The Risk Controllers, journalist and author Peter Norman describes how CCPs operate, how they handled the Lehman default, and the challenges they now face. Because central counterparty clearing is a complex business with a long history that continues to influence decisions and structures even in todays fast changing world, The Risk Controllers explores the development of CCPs and clearing from the earliest times to the present. It draws on the experiences of the people who helped to shape the business of clearing today. It sets the development of CCPs and clearing in the broader context of changes in society, politics and regulation. The book examines turning points, such as the 1987 stock market crash, that set clearing on a new path and the impact of long running trends, including the exponential growth of computer power and the ebb and flow of globalisation. Written in non-technical language, The Risk Controllers provides a unique and accessible guide to CCPs and clearing. It is essential reading for clearing professionals, legislators and regulators whose job it is to take this vitally important business into the future. The recent crisis has, thankfully, renewed interest in the importance of central counterparties: how they can help preserve stability or, as Hong Kong showed in 1987, undermine stability if they are not super sound. Peter Normans book places the role of clearing houses in a historical context, and explains why the financial systems plumbing matters so much. It should be read by anyone interested in building safer capital markets. Paul Tucker, Deputy Governor Financial Stability, Bank of England

Описание:
This book goes beyond traditional financial institutions textbooks, which tend to focus on mathematical models for risk management and the technical aspects of measuring and managing risk. It focuses on the role of financial institutions in promoting social and economic goals for the communities in which they operate for the greater good, while also meeting financial and competitive challenges, and managing risks.
Cooperman divides the text into seven easily teachable modules that examine the real issues and challenges that managers of financial institutions face. These include the transformative changes presented by social unrest, climate change and resource challenges, as well as the changes in how financial institutions operate in light of the opportunities that rapid innovations and disruptive technologies offer. The book features:
Up-to-date coverage of new regulations affecting financial institutions, such as Dodd Frank and new SEC regulations.
Material on project financing and new forms of financing, including crowd funding and new methods of payment for financial institutions.
New sustainable finance models and strategies that incorporate environmental, social, and corporate governance considerations.
A new chapter on sustainable financial institutions, social activism, the greening of finance, and socially responsible investing.
Practical cases focusing on sustainability give readers insight into the socioeconomic risks associated with climate change. Streamlined and accessible, Managing Financial Institutions will appeal to students of financial institutions and markets, risk management, and banking. A companion website, featuring PowerPoint slides, an Instructor's Manual, and additional cases, is also available.
