Opis

The previous edition provided an introduction to the valuation and risk management of modern financial instruments, formulated in a precise mathematical expression and comprehensively covering all relevant topics using consistent and exact notation. In this second edition, Deutsch continues with this philosophy covering new and more advanced topics including terms structure models, second order value at risk, time series analysis, GARCH models, differential equations, finite difference schemes, Martingales and Numeraires.
