From the Inside Flap
Created by the experienced author team of Frank Fabozzi, Henry Davis, and Moorad Choudhry, Introduction to Structured Finance examines the essential elements of this discipline and makes them understandable to a wide audience—from professionals generally familiar with the world of finance who want to enhance their technical knowledge to specialists in some structured finance disciplines who want to become more familiar with others.
Written in a straightforward and accessible style, this comprehensive guide—along with its information-packed appendices—contains a broad view of structured finance that includes:
- Securitization
- Interest rate derivatives (such as options, caps, and floors)
- Credit derivatives (such as asset swaps and total return swaps)
- Securitized and synthetic funding structures
- Cash and synthetic collateralized debt obligations (CDOs)
- Credit-linked notes and structured notes
- Complex leasing transactions
- Project financing
Structured finance plays an important and growing role in today’s financial markets. Indeed, a large part of financial innovation in recent years has been related to securitization, credit derivatives, or a combination of the two. Introduction to Structured Finance offers a well-rounded treatment of this dynamic discipline, a convenient reference covering all the important transaction types in one place, and an excellent opportunity to enhance your financial skills.
