"Stock Index Futures" describes and analyzes the theory governing the operation of index futures markets, and discusses the available international empirical evidence in the light of these theories. The book analyzes the market from the point of view of the user and, unlike other books on the subject, uses the language and approach of finance to describe the index futures market, providing a fundamental understanding of the economic forces at work. Wherever possible, the mathematical content is kept to a minimum. Students taking finance courses should find this an invaluable textbook. Brokers, fund managers and other market participants should find it a useful reference source. This book should be of interest to advanced level students of finance, academic libraries and academics, as well as investment managers and traders.
