Reviews

From the reviews:

"This encyclopedia enters the field with good credentials, both the publisher Springer and the editors … . I personally found it fascinating to read. The work is intended to reflect the many-sidedness of finance and its increasing internationalization. … Encyclopedia of Finance inspires respect … ." (Stuart Hannabuss, Reference Reviews, Vol. 21 (1), 2007)

"The Encyclopedia of Finance succeeds in clearly explaining complex financial concepts. … The papers are up-to-date, covering the latest trends and developments in finance. Each of the articles includes notes and references. In addition, derivations of key financial formulas appear in appendix. The volume also contains an extensive list of additional references, many of them classic scholarly papers in finance. … Without a doubt the scholarly content will serve both the academic and professional community well."
