Marthinsen, goes to the heart of the arcane and largely misunderstood world of derivative finance and makes it accessible to everyone-even novice readers. Marthinsen takes us behind the scenes, into the back alleyways of corporate finance and derivative trading, to provide a bird's-eye view of the most shocking financial disasters of the past quarter century. The book draws on real-life stories to explain how financial derivatives can be used to create or to destroy value. In an approachable, non-technical manner, Marthinsen brings these financial derivatives situations to life, fully exploring the context of each event, evaluating their outcomes, and bridging the gap between theory and practice. 606 $aRisk management 606 $aInvestment analysis 606 $aDerivative securities 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aRisk management. 615 0$aInvestment analysis. 615 0$aDerivative securities. 676 $a332.6457 700 $aMarthinsen$b John E.$0940028 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910466402603321 996 $aRisk takers$92480913 997 $aUNINA
