Sommario/riassunto |
|
"Taking on risk is like building a bomb: when you ignore the fundamental rules, you bury it alive. It will explode. Maybe not today or tomorrow, but one day it will explode.

In this thought-provoking text, Dr. Lewis provides examples and case studies to demonstrate how the rules of risk can work to protect and enhance investor value"-- |
