Product Description
In Financial Markets and Institutions, best-selling authors Mishkin and Eakins provide a practical introduction to prepare students for today's changing landscape of financial markets and institutions. A unifying framework uses a few core principles to organize students' thinking then examines the models as real-world scenarios from a practitioner's perspective. By analyzing these applications, students develop the critical-thinking and problem-solving skills necessary to respond to challenging situations in their future careers. The Sixth Edition features new quantitative examples and ExcelA (R) screenshots to enhance student comprehension; enhanced coverage of ethics, behavioral finance, and arbitrage in markets; and additional examples and cases to extend theory into application.

 Very good for first exposure to financial markets December 10, 2003
6 out of 7 found this review helpful
This book is not an advanced book on financial markets, but it is a good introductory book. I use this book for my undergraduate teaching. Both I and students are happy about the coverage of the book. It is well organized and well written. Improvements will be valuable in the derivatives markets and risk management areas.

I have never found such a made easy finance text like this before!A lot of long and hard to understand topics in other textbooks are simplified in plain English. It is excellent whenever you are puzzled with the topics like Efficient Market Theory and Interest Term Structures in other books and you need a clear understanding!
