Infos

Credit and credit risk permeates every corner of the financial
world. Previously credit tended to be acknowledged only when
dealing with counterparty credit risk, high-yield debt or
credit-linked derivatives, now it affects all things, including
such fundamental concepts as assessing the present value of a
future cash flow. The purpose of this book is to analyze credit
from the beginning--the point at which any borrowing entity
(sovereign, corporate, etc.) decides to raise capital through its
treasury operation. To describe the debt management activity, the
book presents examples from the development banking world which not
only presents a clearer banking structure but in addition sits at
the intersection of many topical issues (multi-lateral agencies,
quasi-governmental entities, Emerging Markets, shrinking pool of
AAA borrowers, etc.).

This book covers:

* Curve construction (instruments, collateralization,
discounting, bootstrapping)

* Credit and fair valuing of loans (modeling, development
institutions)

* Emerging markets and liquidity (liquidity, credit, capital
control, development)

* Bond pricing (credit, illiquid bonds, recovery pricing)

* Treasury (funding as an asset swap structure, benchmarks for
borrowing/investing)

* Risk and asset liability management (leverage, hedging, funding
risk)

Rezensionen

"This is an important and timely book that demonstrates
the motivation and mathematics underlying the role of Treasury in
banking. From first principles, the theory of development banking,
emerging market finance, and funding is derived based on the
underlying interest rate products available."

--Jamie Walton, Global Head of Rates, FX and Emerging
Markets Quants, Morgan Stanley

"An outstanding description of what banking is all about.
From the point of view of a treasury in a

development bank, Biagio performs a deep analysis of the essential
activities of banking, so useful in a moment when, after times of
delusion, credit and funding are again recognized to be the heart
of finance. Everyone in this field will find this book detailed,
useful, and yet enjoyable."

--Massimo Morini, Head of Interest Rate and Credit
Models, Banca IMI
