Descriere

Praise for Financial Instruments & Institutions Accounting and Disclosure Rules, Second Edition "Financial Instruments and Institutions is a superbly informative integrated treatment of institutional, analytical, and financial reporting issues for financial institutions. I strongly recommend the book for analysts, investors, regulators, educators, and anyone with an interest in a coherent, intellectually rigorous discussion of issues encountered in reporting on and analyzing financial institutions and their commercial arrangements, including fair value measurements, risk reporting, and structured finance."
Katherine Schipper, Thomas F. Keller Professor of Business Administration, Duke University
"When you combine the unique risk attributes of financial institutions with the complex transactions they enter into, it can make even the most seasoned investor shudder. Dr. Ryan provides a well–structured and logical approach to the analysis of these companies, layering on explanations of the transactions they enter into and how they impact your analysis. Seasoned investors will find the book an important reference tool, especially on securitizations and derivatives and the new chapter on reinsurance."
Janet L. Pegg, CPA, Accounting & Taxation Research, Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc.
"Stephen Ryan′s book is indispensable for anyone involved with financial institutions, whether it be bankers, insurers, investment advisors, or the student. There is no better book for understanding how these institutions work and how one handles their financial statements to gain that understanding. The detailed coverage of financial instruments and the accounting for financial instruments is outstanding."
Stephen Penman, George O. May Professor and Morgan Stanley Research Scholar, Columbia Business School
Praise for the First Edition
"To any professional engaged in hands–on analysis of financial institutions′ financial statements, this exhaustive text is an indispensable resource."
