Synopsis

These authoritative volumes present the most important published work on the theory and incidence of financial fragility in the financial markets, and policy for dealing with fragility. The volumes cover the recent central bank discussions about financial fragility and models simulating financial fragility. Contents include the key historical contributions that have formed our current understanding of how it arises in the financial markets and the consequences for the economy at large, and for the way in which credit operates in society. These volumes are a key resource for policymakers, central bankers and senior executives in banking and finance who need to extend their understanding of financial fragility and develop instruments for managing such difficulties. Academics specialising in banking and financial economics will find conveniently in two volumes the essential research materials dealing with the pathology of credit markets.
