Covering everything from the fundamentals of financial marketsâ structure to the nuances of fintech, derivatives and commodities, this textbook offers readers a comprehensive view of the functions of the global financial markets from an intuitive and hands-on perspective.

Unlike traditional textbooks that focus solely on financial institutions, this book places emphasis on the individual investor. The main idea is the presentation of the thinking process and economic/financial analyses of global events related to the financial markets as well as the investorâs behavior. The book explains how one should interpret an event and what its possible consequences and hence appropriate course of action would be via a wide range of real-world situations and examples.

Blending insights from economics, corporate finance, investments, and econometrics while demonstrating linkages to accounting, marketing and management disciplines, each chapter delivers a practical framework for understanding and engaging with the financial markets, equipping readers with the tools to analyze real-world events and make informed, strategic decisions. Fundamental econometric methodologies are illustrated throughout to enable the reader to study the quantitative outcomes of financial and economic developments while in-chapter boxed features reinforce understanding of the material.

Understanding Global Financial Markets is ideal for students of finance, economics or business, or those with an interest in the global markets and who wish to succeed in the current financial world.
