Financial Institutions Management

Saunders and Cornett's Financial Institutions Management: A Risk  Management Approach provides an innovative approach that focuses on  managing return and risk in modern financial institutions. The central  theme is that the risks faced by financial institutions managers and the  methods and markets through which these risks are managed are becoming  increasingly similar whether an institution is chartered as a commercial  bank, a savings bank, an investment bank, or an insurance company.  Although the traditional nature of each sector's product activity is  analyzed, a greater emphasis is placed on new areas of activities such  as asset securitization, off-balance-sheet banking, and international  banking.
