5.0 out of 5 stars Only book of its kind and ideal for every level of experience, 12 Mar 2008
By A. Benson (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The only book worth reading on the CDS basis regardless your knowledge base in the field. Consistent use of Bloomberg grabs helps bring all the themes discussed together and concepts are exceptionally well and clearly discussed throughout. Refreshingly balanced perspective on a niche field, this is a gem. Highly relevant considering current environments, particularly in the synthetic markets..

Thank you Prof Choudhry

5.0 out of 5 stars Welcome book at just the right time, 19 Jul 2007

For an investor in both cash and credit derivatives this book is very timely and very well written. It's the first treatment I have seen on the Basis, and it explains it from first principles. There is very good coverage of how to measure the cash-synthetic basis, the different ways this can be done, and practical illustrations and examples that show how the process works in real life. Best of all is Chapter 6 on basis arbitrage trading, Professor Choudhry demonstrates how to put on both the positive and the negative basis trade in the cash bond and credit default swap. This is an excellent book and very welcome, published not a moment too soon.
