Fifth Edition
A Simple Guide to the Way Money Works and the Jargon
Stripping away the mystique from the world of investment and finance, this book is a layman's guide to reading and understanding the financial press and the markets and events it covers. Assuming no financial knowledge, it provides a valuable explanation of the workings of the financial world - from money markets to commodity markets, privatisation to mergers and acquisitions.
The book has been completely updated to include the major changes in trading systems in the city, the effects of the euro, and the impact of the Internet and electronic trading. With an extensive glossary of financial terms, 'How To Read The Financial Pages' will help the reader through the financial columns to a better comprehension of the language of markets and money.
