Rezension zu „Financial Derivatives “
'This introduction to the modeling of financial derivatives is ideal for quantitatively oriented traders, bank researchers, and masters or doctoral students in this field. The book has an elegant balance of concepts and applications that allows a full understanding of why the models work, without an overburden of technical details. Broader than its title suggests, the book contains a strong grounding in models of stochastic processes for financial applications, including portfolio choice and asset pricing theory.' Darrell Duffie, Stanford University 'In Financial Derivatives, Jamil Baz and George Chacko have shown their powerful command of the subject by combining a rigorous mathematical development with an intuitive presentation format that makes the complex analysis of derivative securities truly accessible to both the academic and practitioner who wants a deep foundation and breadth of applications. The discriminating choices of which financial instruments to include and the carefully selected examples to anchor each concept reflect their combined experiences as serious academic researchers, skilled practitioners, and seasoned teachers. The reader is in for a treat: Bon Appetit!' Robert Menton, Nobel Laureate, Harvard Business School 'Jamil Baz and George Chacko have written an invaluable book that combines the technical and the practical aspects of derivatives pricing, interest rate models, and pricing complex financial instruments in a manner that is accessible to the sophisticated and the lay reader. They handle the material in a pedagogical manner which makes it appropriate for graduate level finance courses and practitioners. This book is a must read for those looking to educate themselves on these topics.' Franco Modigliani, Nobel Laureate, MIT 'This book is a summa in the field of financial derivatives that will become the standard reference.
