Commercial Banking: The management of risk
20 Oct 2009
Format:Hardcover
I have recommended this book to my students the past three years. Infact, it's the textbook for my Commercial Banking course. I guess a fourth edition is long overdue. The industry is so dynamic that constant review is the only way to remain current. Otherwise, it's an excellent resource.
