Description
This popular text, publishing Spring 1999 in its Second Edition, introduces the mathematics underlying the pricing of derivatives. The
increase of interest in dynamic pricing models stems from their applicability to practical situations: with the freeing of exchange,
interest rates, and capital controls, the market for derivative products has matured and pricing models have become more accurate. Professor
Neftci's book answers the need for a resource targeting professionals, Ph.D. students, and advanced MBA students who are specifically
interested in these financial products. The Second Edition is designed to make the book the main text in first year masters and Ph.D.
programs for certain courses, and will continue to be an important manual for market professionals.
Audience
Students in master's or Ph.D. programs, market professionals, and professionals with mathematical, technical, or physics backgrounds.
