From the Author:
More about the book:
This book does not have to be read from A-to-Z, since chapters are designed
to be self-contained and independent. Thus, the reader can choose topics of
interest. The `Tech. Index', which indicates the mathematical level of
difficulty of each chapter, should be helpful. There are chapters on useful
material in a variety of areas, implemented in the real world. This
includes the `Risk Lab', standard and exotic products, and corporate risk
management with various improvements on VAR. There are also some
academically oriented parts, mostly near the end of the book.
The book can be used by potential quants to get right into the subject of
quantitative finance. Many topics should appeal to finance students and
practicing quants.
