Do you want to learn modern Finance? “Modern Money Mechanics” textbook is a comprehensive Finance textbook that seamlessly integrates traditional and contemporary finance topics including cryptocurrency, Initial Coin Offerings, FinTech, corporate finance, investments, international finance, and climate finance.

 

Ideal for both graduate and undergraduate students, as well as investment practitioners, it embraces a 'learning by doing' philosophy, enriched with numerous quantitative, practical exercises prevalent in today's financial landscape—from commercial to investment banking, and from private equity to cryptocurrency ventures.

 

This text not only sheds light on valuing both domestic and international projects amidst fluctuations in currency and uncertainties in interest rates and government policies but also guides you through the valuation of start-up ideas, securing financing, constructing high-performing asset portfolios, understanding the significance of alternative assets like land, private equity, cryptocurrencies, and NFTs, and mastering hedging strategies. Each chapter is crafted to demystify complex financial concepts, providing clear pathways to applying this knowledge in real-world scenarios. We will explore the inner workings of companies and their issuance of securities and cryptocurrencies and examine the optimal balance between debt and equity. Additionally, we will study and implement advanced hedging strategies used by companies to mitigate risks and address the impact of climate change on both individuals and businesses.
