Description

Financial markets are said to be an important source in providing capital to other sectors in every economy. Their establishment, operation, development, and practices have important implications in the development process of every country. There are also challenges that every country must deal with, such as institutional rigidities in some countries that could curtail financial development and introduce severe challenges. Dealing with the challenges and introducing new practices to smooth out the operation of the financial markets is an important goal. This book focuses on some of the issues related to recent developments in financial markets, their rigidities, and implications for the future of these markets, compiled over nine chapters. Topics discussed include the impact of financial development on income distribution; optimising trading strategies and decision making rules to trade with a special emphasis on reducing investment risk; similarities and differences in retail and institutional use of alternative investments; a new method of analysing information and forecasting foreign exchange and financial markets; improving communication skills in reducing risks in financial markets and retail clients; and, finally, how to stabilise the government bond market.
