This text is intended for learners studying investments for the first time. Practical and applied, it is comprehensive enough for those who plan to become CFAs, but remains user-friendly due to its clarity of explanation and its pedagogy. The third edition has two new chapters, one on behavioural finance and a second "security analysis" chapter. Behavioural finance has become a mainstream topic in investment circles, and readers find it very interesting. The chapter on mortgage-backed securities was new to the second edition. In addition to being an increasingly important asset class, mortgage-backed securities provide some thought-provoking questions on fixed income valuation. Contents same as US/UK editions.
