Customer Reviews
The book is readable by anyone from beginner onwards and includes an updated section on credit derivatives, the most dynamic sector of the OTC market at this time. This edition is expanded to include contributions from industry experts on specialist topics to widen the coverage of the book.
I have to recommend that any person who needs to know more about the OTC derivatives market buy the book. A training course (such as those provided by Francesca the author) provides more intensive coverage, but the book is a simple and (relatively) cheap way to orient yourself.
I have a number of books on financial markets and OTC derivatives which are only readable by people with significant maths ability, this one explains the basic maths but shouldn't be beyond most readers.
I should also be honest and point out I wrote chapter 17 of the book. ;-)
Bill Hodgson.
Listmania!
