Description

A revision of the classic Financial Handbook. This 5th edition, published in 1981 is being split into two: The Handbook of Financial Markets and Institutions and The Handbook of Financial Management. Financial Markets and Institutions covers domestic US financial markets and institutions, international financial markets and institutions and investment analysis strategies. Since it first appeared in 1925, the handbook has been the authoritative source that business and finance professionals, as well as attorneys, accountants, and advisors turn to for expert guidance. Contributors include financial economists from both the business and academic worlds, leading business executives, and financial consultants. The handbook is written in clear, precise language and includes new sections on investment banking, the microcomputer and investments, the bond rating process, option and insurance strategies for fixed income portfolios, high yield bonds, asset pricing models and small business financing.
