Financial Risk Management and Derivative Instruments is an accessible, concise textbook offering a solid introduction to the essential principles of risk management and derivatives. Structured in two parts, the book first looks at markets and uncertainty, examining risk in the stock market and the bond market, leveraging and growth. It then moves on to topics in derivative instruments and financial management, including futures, options and the Black-Scholes model. The text sets the topics in their global context, referencing financial shocks such as Brexit and the Covid-19 pandemic. On top of the accessible writing style, students are supported through a range of pedagogical features in the text, ranging from key insights boxes, illustrative examples boxes and end-of-chapter tutorials to check understanding. The book is also supplemented by a set of PowerPoint slides. This textbook will be the ideal companion for introductory undergraduate courses on derivatives, financial instruments and financial risk management, as part of programmes in investment and corporate finance. It will also be a useful text for masters level and MBA finance courses.
