Financial Markets and Institutions

With its clear and accessible style, Financial Markets and Institutions will help students make sense of the financial activity that is so widely and prominently reported in the media. Looking at the subject from the economist’s perspective, the book takes a practical, applied approach and theory is covered only where absolutely necessary in order to help students understand events as they happen in the real world.  This fifth edition has been thoroughly updated to reflect the changes that have occurred in the financial system in recent years.
