5.0 out of 5 stars
Clear, concise, and highly approachable,
By A Customer
This review is from: Dictionary of Financial Risk Management (Hardcover)
Provided as a foundation to my employer's internal training programs, this is a fantastic book. Often arcane financial terms made accessible and understandible, even to the uninitiated. I highly recommend it to anyone working in the financial sector, or with a keen interest in their own financial matters.
