'The only guide focusing entirely on practical approaches to pricing and hedging derivativesOne valuable lesson of the financial crisis was that derivatives and risk practitioners don't really
understand the products they're dealing with. Written by a practitioner for practitioners, this book delivers the kind of knowledge and skills traders and finance professionals need to fully

floor--information only seasoned practitioners such as authors Marroni and Perdomo can impart. Lays out proven derivatives pricing and hedging strategies and techniques for equities, FX, fixed

real-life examples covering everything from option payout with delta hedging, to Monte Carlo procedures to common structured products payoffs The Companion Website features all of the examples
from the book in Excel complete with source code '--
