Mathematics and Statistics for Financial Risk Management (Second Edition)

While there are many good econometrics, statistics, and quant guides currently available, there is a surprising lack of practical insights on quantitative risk management. The quickest, easiest way to get a handle on the basics of financial risk management, this Second Edition of the popular guide fills that gap in the literature.
Clear, concise, and brimming with real-world examples that vividly exemplify the concepts discussed, Mathematics and Statistics for Risk Management, Second Edition explains each concept, procedure, and formula from scratch. Throughout, it follows a consistent, quick-learning approach. As each technique is introduced, sample problems and discrete application sections demonstrate how the techniques can be applied to actual risk management problems. In addition, exercises at the end of each chapter and accompanying solutions found at the end of the book (also available online) allow you to practice the techniques covered and monitor your progress.
