Optionen, Derivate und strukturierte Produkte

Financial derivatives are on everyone's lips: whether as structured products for private investors, as options that protect a company against exchange rate fluctuations in foreign business, or as credit derivatives, which are considered co-contributors to the current financial crisis. Marc Oliver Rieger and his co-authors provide a solid foundational knowledge on these topics. The work enables an understanding and optimization of the use of options, derivatives, and structured products. At the same time, it serves as a competent reference work for practitioners. It combines practical insights into markets and legal frameworks, especially in the German-speaking area, with current research findings. With contributions from Manuel Dürr, Richard Meier, Steffen Rossberg, and Mei Wang. Featuring a foreword by Thorsten Hens, Director of the Swiss Banking Institute, University of Zurich. Voices on the book: “This book covers the world of derivative products from A to Z and is a must-read for anyone dealing with derivative products and looking to invest in them.” Meike Bradbury, Credit Suisse Global Investment Delivery. “The book by Marc Oliver Rieger and other authors describes derivative financial transactions and markets in a generally understandable way and is particularly suitable for practitioners. The author also ensures that the theoretical and mathematical foundations are up to date with the latest research.” Prof. Hans Geiger, Emeritus Professor of Economics at the University of Zurich. “Marc Oliver Rieger presents a book that clearly stands out from the crowd in its approach. The focus is not on the abstract valuation of derivatives, but on the practical application of derivatives. The book not only provides a competent guide through the jungle of structured products but also offers the reader a wealth of important institutional and legal information.”.
