Abstract

Fixed income practitioners need to understand the conceptual frameworks of their field; to master its quantitative tool-kit; and to be well-versed in its cash-flow and pricing conventions. Fixed Income Securities, Third Edition by Bruce Tuckman and Angel Serrat is designed to balance these three objectives. The book presents theory without unnecessary abstraction; quantitative techniques with a minimum of mathematics; and conventions at a useful level of detail. The book begins with an overview of global fixed income markets and continues with the fundamentals, namely, arbitrage pricing, interest rates, risk metrics, and term structure models to price contingent claims. Subsequent chapters cover individual markets and securities: repo, rate and bond forwards and futures, interest rate and basis swaps, credit markets, fixed income options, and mortgage-backed-securities. Fixed Income Securities, Third Edition is full of examples, applications, and case studies. Practically every quantitative concept is illustrated through real market data. This practice-oriented approach makes the book particularly useful for the working professional. This third edition is a considerable revision and expansion of the second. Most examples have been updated. The chapters on fixed income options and mortgage-backed securities have been considerably expanded to include a broader range of securities and valuation methodologies. Also, three new chapters have been added: the global overview of fixed income markets; a chapter on corporate bonds and credit default swaps; and a chapter on discounting with bases, which is the foundation for the relatively recent practice of discounting swap cash flows with curves based on money market rates. This university edition includes problems which students can use to test and enhance their understanding of the text.

Abstract

Tavakoli, also author of the widely popular Credit Derivatives and Synthetic Structures, provides a completed updated and state-of-the-art look at the CDO and structured credit products market amid recent developments. In addition to a comprehensive overview of the market, the book presents key issues in valuing structured financial products and important quality control issues. Additionally, Tavakoli shares her experience with structuring technology that has benefited the markets and has the potential to create even better products. Coverage begins with an overview of market basics, technology, subprime and Alt-A special issues, special purpose entities, total rate of return swaps, cash and synthetic arbitrage CDOs, CDO equity structures, selling CDO equity, balance sheet CDOs, risk and return, the role of the rating agencies, and credit hedge funds. Tavakoli examines securitization topics, including the huge increase in the CDO arbitrage created by synthetics, the tranches most at risk from this new technology, dumping securitizations on bank balance sheets, the abuse of offshore vehicles by companies, and securitizations made possible by new securitization techniques and the Euro. She comprehensively covers one of the fastest growing markets on Wall Street, predicting where new bank regulations and other developments may lead to product growth or product extinction. While providing an overview of the market and its dynamic growth, Tavakoli explores the types of products offered, hedging techniques, and valuation and risk/return issues associated with investment in CDOs and synthetic CDOs.
