Reviews

Advance praise: 'This book covers the economics behind exchange rate movements and also provides well-thought-out examples of how to mitigate the risk of such movements. It is rigorous enough to challenge quantitative MBAs yet also builds from core fundamentals such that first-time students of international finance can grasp the material. I have used this book for years in MBA and Executive MBA courses.' Karl V. Lins, Spencer Fox Eccles Endowed Chair in Banking and Professor of Finance, David Eccles School of Business, University of Utah
