Description
Stuart Greenbaum and Anjan Thakor bring a unique analytical approach to the subject of banks and banking in this completely revised and updated new edition. They expand the scope of the typical bank management course by addressing all types of deposit-type financial institutions and by explaining the why of intermediation rather than simply describing institutions, regulations, and market phenomena.This analytic approach strikes at the heart of financial intermediation by explaining why financial intermediaries exist and what they do. Specific regulations, economies, and policies will change, but the underlying philosophical foundations remain the same. This approach enables students to understand the foundational principles and to apply them to whatever context they encounter as professionals. It is a completely updated edition of a classic banking text. Online instructors manual and ppt slides are available to instructors on the publisher's website. The authors are recognized experts in banking.

Audience
Advanced undergraduates and MSc in Finance students in courses on commerical bank management, banking, money and banking, and financial intermediation.
