More DescriptionThis book is a practical introduction to derivatives offering a clear explanation of both the main derivative products and the related legal, regulatory and tax issues. By addressing both aspects of the subject, this work occupies the center ground between pure economics and pure law. It is an accessible guide that bridges the gap between the different approaches of finance professionals and legal practitioners towards derivatives.
The third edition includes a new discussion of the retail offer of derivatives, and discusses a greater number of derivative products (including CPPI structures, derivatives used as financing tools, power trading, emissions trading, multi-asset derivatives, fund-linked derivatives, derivatives based on "computed data", and the different wrappers" in which derivative exposures are made available).
It provides greatly expanded discussion of the ISDA documents used in the over-the-counter (OTC) market and looks in more detail at the duty of care (selling and misselling, including the recent decision in the "Springwell" litigation).
