Review The Foundations of Pension Finance (Elgar Mini Series) / Edward Elgar Publishing:The Foundations of Pension Finance presents in two authoritative volumes a selection of the most important published articles on systems of retirement income provision - an area that is of vital importance for the future of the economy in general and the financial system in particular. The collection makes a very important contribution towards a better understanding of the various factors which influence the outcomes arising from systems of retirement income provision. The fields of pension finance and pension economics are fortunate in having benefited from penetrating contributions from a range of distinguished scholars. The volumes are divided into five sections. The first section features material relevant to the role of pensions in the broad overall development of financing arrangements in the context of the economy as a whole. The second focuses more closely on pension provision in the context of capital markets. The third looks at pensions as they affect the economic behavior of the personal sector, while the fourth is a companion piece examining the link of pensions to corporate finance. The final section examines important issues in pension reform facing government. This book will be essential reading for economists concerned with pensions and the problems of old age, financial economists as well as practitioners involved in the pension industry.

Review Interest-Rate Option Models: Understanding, Analysing, and Using Models for Exotic Interest-Rate Options (Wiley Series in Financial Engineering) / John Wiley & Sons:An interest rate option is a contract giving the beneficiary the right but not an obligation to pay or receive a specific interest rate on a predetermined principle for a set interval. Writing in accessible and non-technical language, the author reviews all the commonly-used interest rate option models, showing how they can be applied and implemented. This book is aimed at market professionals and postgraduate students internationally, working with interest rate dependent options, who find a barrier to entry in the very technical nature of current academic and research literature. Mathematical derivations of the models are only reported in so far as they enhance the understanding of the model - the emphasis is on accessibility and ease of understanding.
