Options, Futures, and Other Derivatives (4th Edition)

Options, Futures, and Other Derivatives (4th Edition)

This fourth edition provides a unifying approach to the valuation of all derivatives not just futures and options and includes new chapters on value at risk and estimating volatilities and correlations. Hull (Joseph L. Rotman School of Management, U. of Toronto) assumes that the reader has taken introductory courses in finance and probability and statistics. The disk includes Excel-based software called DerivaGem which can be used to calculate options prices, imply volatilities, and calculate Greek letters for options and interest rate derivatives. For graduate and advanced undergraduate elective courses in business, economics, and financial engineering. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
