Description: Over the past few decades
society has come to view the financial sector as one of the most
important sources of economic growth, tax revenue and employment.
The position of London as one of the most important economic global
financial centres reflects the priority given to its activities.
The financial instability of recent times has undoubtedly shaken
confidence after years of strong growth but it is far too early to
write off this powerful and innovative sector. This highly readable
introduction to the financial markets and how they perform is
designed for those with little or no knowledge of financial markets
who wish to gain an understanding of the financial instruments and
the markets on which they trade.
