Description
The Fourth Edition of Money, the Financial System, and the Economy provides students with a clear focus on how economic principles illustrate the evolution and conduct of financial markets and institutions, and how the international developments within these markets and institutions relate to economic performance. Hubbard provides a timely perspective on key issues through the inclusion of relevant new data and up-to-the-minute real-world applications. A new supplement to this classic text is a casebook featuring in-depth, real-world cases designed to expose students firsthand to decision making on key issues covered.
