Description and Table of Contents
Description
This Handbook presents a synopsis of the current state of various aspects of the theory of financial economics and its application to important financial problems. The chapters, which are tutorial and survey-like in nature, have been written by leading experts in the field. The contributions are in two broad categories: capital markets and corporate finance. The key topics of the theory are included with strong emphasis on empirical work and practice. The volume should serve as a primary reference work for financial economics and financial modelling students, faculty and practitioners. The expository treatments are suitable for masters and PhD students, with discussions leading from first principles to current research, with reference to important research works in the area.
