Riassunto

The Economics of Money, Banking and Finance deals with international issues affecting financial markets. Taking a strong unifying theoretical perspective it provides a unique comparative survey of financial systems in the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Scandinavia and the USA. Proven popular with students, the author's excellent writing style ensures economic theories are clearly explained, whilst the copious use of literature and articles from the financial press give students a real-life framework to the theory. Assuming a basic grounding in economics principles, this book will be suitable for a range of one and two semester courses in: banking, financial economics, financial services, finance, and money, banking and finance.
