Opis

The Handbook of Investors' Behavior during Financial Crises provides fundamental information about investor behavior during turbulent periods, such the 2000 dot com crash and the 2008 global financial crisis. Contributors share the same behavioral finance tools and techniques while analyzing behaviors across a variety of market structures and asset classes. The volume provides novel insights about the influence and effects of regional differences in market design. Its distinctive approach to studies of financial crises is of key importance in our contemporary financial landscape, even more so since the accelerated process of globalization has rendered the outbreak of financial crises internationally more commonplace compared to previous decades.

• Encompasses empirical, quantitative and regulation-motivated studies
• Includes information about retail and institutional investor behavior
• Analyzes optimal financial structures for the development and growth of specific regional economies

Recenzje

"Financial crises are extraordinarily complex, necessarily involving a huge number of elements. This volume contributes to our understanding of this complexity by cleverly addressing a substantial range of the contributing factors and behaviours. The editors have picked contributions to provide an excellent reminder that we should not oversimplify our understanding of how events evolve, and how regulators, markets and investors tackle them." --Mardi Dungey, University of Tasmania

"This book provides a collection of papers in the area of behavioral finance. It is an excellent reference tool for anyone interested in the latest and exclusive research on investor behavior during different turbulent periods and across several market structures and asset classes." --Dimitris Kenourgios,National and Kapodistrian University of Athens
