Description and Table of Contents
Description
The financial market is full of seemingly increasingly complex financial products, often with specialized and strage-sounding names. However, underneath the gloss, things are simpler than they seem. This book aims to de-mystify the jargon and explains what is going in the field of financial engineering. By using many numerical examples, the book discusses apparently difficult concepts in a simple, straightforward way. The book provides: simple yet authoritative analysis of the various financial instruments and lost of numerical examples so that the reader can apply the book's advice in real situations.
