Product Description
Product Description
An Introduction to Banking provides an introduction to liquidity risk management and asset–liability management. It begins with an overview of modern banking, the goals of a bank, how they operate, and how a breakdown in the banking system contributed to the crisis. Subsequent chapters introduce the fundamental workings of a bank and explore ALM and liquidity risk management in greater detail. As regulators move to enforce liquidity risk management in banks, and ongoing needs to better manage a bank′s assets and liabilities, this book is a must–have reference for all finance practitioners.

An excellent introduction to the basics of banking. Shines a bright light into the murky world of funding, liquidity management, and the banking book. An easy to read yet comprehensive tour of the world of treasury with careful explanations and clear examples. Written post the 2008 crisis it gives clear examples of the mechanics of how some of the issues unfolded.
