This book draws readers' attention to the financial aspects of daily
life at a corporation by combining a robust mathematical setting and the
explanation and derivation of the most popular models of the firm.
Intended for third-year undergraduate students of business finance,
quantitative finance, and financial mathematics, as well as first-year
postgraduate students, it is based on the twin pillars of theory and
analytics, which merge in a way that makes it easy for students to
understand the exact meaning of the concepts and their representation
and applicability in real-world contexts. Examples are given throughout
the chapters in order to clarify the most intricate aspects; where
needed, there are appendices at the end of chapters, offering additional
mathematical insights into specific topics. Due to the recent growth in
knowledge demand in the private sector, practitioners can also profit
from the book as a bridge-builder between university and industry.
Lastly, the book provides useful information for managers who want to
deepen their understanding of risk management and come to recognize what
may have been lacking in their own systems.
