For those interested in the financial services industry.

This book provides an in-depth and integrated analysis of value production in the financial services industry. Based on modern financial economic theory and recent research results, this book offers a thorough and analytical treatment of all aspects of financial services. The book places a strong emphasis on financial management, evident both in topics—such as performance analysis, risk management, and regulation—and in the book's structure.

  • presents a comprehensive treatment of the financial services industry, including a discussion of developments in the deregulated, global financial services economy.
  • emphasizes value production and financial management of financial services, relating analysis and strategic options for banks, insurance companies and securities firms to market performance.
  • offers integrated treatment of all financial services and institutions around “value-chain” activities.
  • also provides a clear overview to the material, a logical structure to the book, and relevance to current development in the field.
