as serving as an invaluable reference tool for professionals

Describing how the key products and markets work, who the
principle participants are and their overall goals and objectives,
Andrew Chisholm provides a thorough overview of the global capital
markets. The book covers a wide range of equity, debt, foreign

expressions used in the financial markets.

Boasting an international focus, examples are drawn from major
international markets around the world. It makes extensive use of
numerical examples and case studies to help explain a wide range of
cash and derivative products used in the capital markets business.
It covers both debt and equity products and includes new material
on credit products such as collateralized debt obligations and
credit derivative structures; equity fundamental analysis,
portfolio theory and convertible bonds. Market data has been fully
updated from the first edition and recent events such as the
'credit crisis' are discussed.
