Synopsis

The deep understanding of the forces that affect the valuation, risk and return of fixed income securities and their derivatives has never been so important. As the world of fixed income securities becomes more complex, anybody who studies fixed income securities must be exposed more directly to this complexity. This book provides a thorough discussion of these complex securities, the forces affecting their prices, their risks, and of the appropriate risk management practices. Fixed Income Securities , however, provides a methodology, and not a shopping list. It provides instead examples and methodologies that can be applied quite universally, once the basic concepts have been understood.

"Veronesi′s book provides a new standard reference for students of fixed income markets. Veronesi presents his material using easy to follow arguments and prose making the book easily accessible to students who are new to these markets. In addition, Veronesi provides a wonderful set of examples based on real–world data and situations.
