Tilman (finance, Columbia U.) is head of a strategic advisory firm that serves governments, financial institutions, corporations, and institutional investors worldwide. In this text, he
examines the dominant global forces behind the tectonic financial shift that has occurred over the past 25 years. He first puts forth an evolutionary thesis--"Dynamic Finance"--which deals with
the origins and drivers of the profound changes, and then uses the evolutionary perspective of Dynamic Finance to introduce an actionable decision-making framework, "Financial Darwinism," that
is designed to help financial executives respond to the modern-day challenges of managing financial institutions. For executives, financial practitioners, institutional investors, analysts,
academics, financial journalists, regulators, policy makers, senior decision makers and professionals in nonfinancial companies, individual investors, and students of economics and finance.
