An introduction to international financial markets, primarily for students in an MBA program. The subject matter is the international financial markets for foreign exchange, eurocurrencies, and international bonds. The text delineates the rules of the game for each of the three international financial markets. The focus is on market action in an environment of which government regulation is a part, an approach different from the widespread one that takes market behavior as a given and concentrates on the manipulation of markets through government policy. The prerequisites are an introductory course in economics and an introductory course in statistics. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
