Hauptbeschreibung
Financial Markets Theory
presents classical asset pricing theory, a theory composed of milestones such as portfolio selection, risk aversion, fundamental asset pricing theorem, portfolio frontier, CAPM, CCAPM, APT, the Modigliani-Miller Theorem, no arbitrage/risk neutral evaluation and information in financial markets. Starting from an analysis of the empirical tests of the above theories, the author provides a discussion of the most recent literature, pointing out the main advancements within classical asset pricing theory and the new approaches designed to address open problems (e.g. behavioural finance). It is the only textbook to address the economic foundations of financial markets theory from a mathematically rigorous standpoint, and to offer a self-contained critical discussion, based on empirical results.
Financial Markets Theory
is an advanced book, well-suited for a first graduate course in financial markets, economics or financial mathematics. It is self-contained and introduces topics in a setting accessible to economists and practitioners equipped with a basic mathematical background. For those not acquainted with standard microeconomic theory, the tools needed to follow the analysis are presented early in the book. The approach makes this a vital handbook for practitioners in insurance, banking, investment funds and financial consultancy, as well as an excellent graduate-reference textbook.
Langtext
The first book to combine the latest discussion on financial market theory
with precision mathematics and how practical results influence research,
Financial Markets Theory, addresses the need for a book like this to
accompany the most popular related titles. Using simple maths and an
introductory background to the economics required, anyone studying or
working in financial markets should have a copy of this book. It covers
all the key topics with exercises and examples that make it ideal for
self-study or as an advanced graduate textbook, but it includes so much
recent research that it is also a vital handbook for practitioners working
in banks, insurance, investment funds and financial consultancy.
