Sommario/riassunto |
|
<DIV><DIV>Paul Heyne, one of the nation's best-selling economists, provides an accessible overview of the discipline of economics. Economic knowledge, he contends, is not complete without reference to the totality of human society-a realization essential to a proper understanding of the fundamental principles of economics. The sweep of economic thinking is presented here with reference to the great economists and important schools of thought.</DIV></DIV> |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book introduces readers to the financial markets, derivatives, structured products and how the products are modelled and implemented by practitioners. In addition, it equips readers with the |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
necessary knowledge of financial markets needed in order to work as product structurers, traders, sales or risk managers. As the book seeks to unify the derivatives modelling and the financial engineering practice in the market, it will be of interest to financial practitioners and academic researchers alike. Further, it takes a different route from the existing financial mathematics books, and will appeal to students and practitioners with or without a scientific background. The book can also be used as a textbook for the following courses: Financial Mathematics (undergraduate level) Stochastic Modelling in Finance (postgraduate level) Financial Markets and Derivatives (undergraduate level) Structured Products and Solutions (undergraduate/postgraduate level). |
