Praise for Contemporary Finance "Contemporary Finance is another tour de force treatise from Allan Malz, building on but extending the coverage of his earlier book Financial Risk Management to bring it up to date in a world of financial fragility and interconnected complexity. Dr. Malz is a gifted expositor who approaches the subject from the vantage point of both a market risk manager and a scholar of finance theory. I've been working on these topics for four decades and learn something new in every chapter. Moreover, the material I think I knew I now know how to teach thanks to Allan's books."--Richard Clarida, Harriss Professor of Economics, Columbia University; Global Economic Advisor, PIMCO; former Vice Chair, Federal Reserve 2018-2022 "Contemporary Finance covers many key issues in finance. For example, it explains the nature of financial markets, how financial securities are priced, and risk management practices. It concludes with chapters on monetary policy and regulation. An important question for any book used in the classroom is: 'Will students want to keep the book after the course is over?' I am confident that students will continue to want to use Contemporary Finance once they become practitioners. The book blends theory and practice in an engaging way that is useful for all who work (or would like to work) in finance."--John C.

With its focus on recent developments and global markets, Contemporary Finance is an excellent choice for professionals and academics looking to improve or update their understanding of financial economics. By aiming for integration across topics rather than siloed explanations of individual subjects, Contemporary Finance offers readers a practically applicable foundation of knowledge that will serve them well in public service or the private sector. Today's learners need a contemporary, applied approach to the study of finance--this is it.
PRAISE FOR THE CREDIT INVESTOR'S HANDBOOK "Credit analysis is an underappreciated skill that is essential for investing a cross all asset classes, private and public. Michael's book is an incredibly detailed, step-by-step 'how-to' manual for analyzing credit investments, from performing to distressed, and understanding the complexities of the bankruptcy process." --Joyce Chang, Chair of Global Research, JP Morgan "While there are many books on investing in equities, until now, there were virtually no comprehensive books on investing in debt. The Credit Investor's Handbook fills this gap. While the book is focused on the debt markets, its analytical approach is extremely relevant to equities investors. Furthermore, Michael's use of real-life examples and humor make it an enjoyable read. The Credit Investor's Handbook is a 'must-read'for anyone pursuing a career in research, investment banking, capital allocation, and, most importantly, investing in an ever-evolving global marketplace." --Mario Gabelli, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Gabelli Funds "The Credit Investor's Handbook is an extraordinarily comprehensive look at credit investment strategies. It is chock full of rich examples that are bound to be useful in assessing the credit excesses that will undoubtedly unravel in the years ahead. I wish someone had handed me a copy when I came into the business." --Seth A. Klarman, CEO and Portfolio Manager, The Baupost Group "When I got my pre-publication copy of The Credit Investor's Handbook, I turned first to the chapters on distressed debt investing. I found a very helpful, logically organized introduction to the process and some fascinating 'warstories.'Like all good investment books, The Handbook doesn't purport to be a how-to that will yield easy profits, but it does a great job of explaining the elements that must be mastered." --Howard Marks, Co-Chairman, Oaktree Capital Management "Michael's excellent book, The Credit Investor's Handbook, is like a traditional bank's training program on steroids. It offers the same kind of detailed, real-life grounding in financial analysis that was critical to my early success on Wall Street. The book teaches you the practical skills needed to succeed and steers you away from academic theories that don't work in the real world of credit markets. Michael is a great teacher with the unique ability to breakdown complex analysis into simple steps, making it easy to learn. He also brings the same passion and terrific sense of humor he uses in his classroom to the pages of this textbook. I highly recommend it as a 'must-read'for all up-and-coming credit analysts." --Harvey Schwartz, CEO of the Carlyle Group
