Description

The only guide focusing entirely on practical approaches to pricing and hedging derivatives One valuable lesson of the financial crisis was that derivatives and risk practitioners don't really understand the products they're dealing with.

Written by a practitioner for practitioners, this book delivers the kind of knowledge and skills traders and finance professionals need to fully understand derivatives and price and hedge them effectively.

Most derivatives books are written by academics and are long on theory and short on the day-to-day realities of derivatives trading.

Of the few practical guides available, very few of those cover pricing and hedging—two critical topics for traders.

What matters to practitioners is what happens on the trading floor—information only seasoned practitioners such as authors Marroni and Perdomo can impart.
