Sinopsis

A practical guide to the inside language of the world of derivative instruments and risk management

Financial engineering is where technology and quantitative analysis meet on Wall Street to solve risk problems and find investment opportunities. It evolved out of options pricing, and, at this time, is primarily focused on derivatives since they are the most difficult instruments to price and are also the riskiest. Not only is financial engineering a relatively new field, but by its nature, it continues to grow and develop. This unique dictionary explains and clarifies for financial professionals the important terms, concepts, and sometimes arcane language of this increasingly influential world of high finance and potentially high profits.

John F. Marshall (New York, NY) is a Managing Partner of Marshall, Tucker & Associates, a New York-based financial engineering and consulting firm. Former Executive Director of then International Association of Financial Engineers, Marshall is the author of several books, including Understanding Swaps.

De la contraportada

Your A-Z Guide to the Language of the World of Derivative Instruments and Risk Management

Financial engineering is where financial theory, quantitative analysis, and technology meet on Wall Street to solve complex problems and find investment opportunities. This highly technical field began in the 1970s with the development of option pricing theory. Today, financial engineering makes extensive use of derivative instruments, including options, to structure products having unique investment characteristics and to manage the risks inherent in modern business enterprises. Still a relatively new area, financial engineering by its nature continues to grow and develop-as does its terminology.

From ABS to Z bonds and beyond, this unique dictionary explains and clarifies for financial professionals the important terms, concepts, and sometimes arcane language of the increasingly complex world of high finance. Concise and easy to use, the Dictionary of Financial Engineering provides short and to-the-point definitions for thousands of terms used by financial engineers and others involved in modern finance.
