Taylor & Francis Ltd Financial Modelling in Commodity Markets Chapman
Book SynopsisFinancial Modelling in Commodity Markets provides a basic and self-contained introduction to the ideas underpinning financial modelling of products in commodity markets. The book offers a concise and operational vision of the main models used to represent, assess and simulate real assets and financial positions related to the commodity markets. It discusses statistical and mathematical tools important for estimating, implementing and calibrating quantitative models used for pricing and trading commodity-linked products and for managing basic and complex portfolio risks.Key features: Provides a step-by-step guide to the construction of pricing models, and for the applications of such models for the analysis of real data Written for scholars from a wide range of scientific fields, including economics and finance, mathematics, engineering and statistics, as well as for practitioners IllustrTrade Review"A concise survey of arbitrage pricing models for commodities, this book may serve as an introduction to the subject and a textbook for a course on commodity price modeling with an eye toward implementation." —Professor Andrea Roncoroni, ESSEC Business School "This book represents a valuable synthesis of the most relevant classical concepts on commodity markets and of the related financial models. The theoretical arguments are presented in a clear and rigorous way, and a great effort is spent on proposing paradigmatic applications. A very informative methodological appendix assists the reader in grasping a great part of the computational details. I am strongly convinced that this work can effectively act as a textbook for high-level students as well as handbook for scholars." —Professor Roy Cerqueti, Università degli Studi di Macerata "Financial Modelling in Commodity Markets provides an accessible and clear introduction to important stochastic models for finance, with a special focus on energy markets. Different from competing textbooks, a particular emphasis is placed on the practical implementation of different models and techniques. The exercises at the end of each chapter represent a useful pedagogical tool. This book will be a valuable addition to the library of every graduate student and practitioner in the field." —Professor Claudio Fontana, University of Padova "This book offers a concise and operational vision of the main models used to represent, assess, and simulate real assets and financial positions related to the commodity markets. It discusses statistical and mathematical tools important for estimating, implementing, and calibrating quantitative models for pricing and trading commodity-linked products and managing basic and complex portfolio risks. As a brief investigation of arbitrage price models for commodities, the book can be seen as an introductory book and a commodity price modeling textbook. The book brings together classical notions on commodities and related financial models. The models are presented in a clear fashion with suggested practical applications. Financial Modeling of Commodity Markets introduces stochastic modeling and practical implementation of models and techniques. There are assignments at the end of each chapter, which is a useful pedagogical tool. This should be valuable for many students in financial modeling. A nice feature of the book is that it provides a step-by-step guide to the construction of pricing models and the applications of such models to analyze real data. It is written for scholars from a wide range of scientific fields, including economics and finance, mathematics, engineering, statistics, and practitioners. It illustrates some important pricing models using real data sets that are commonly used in the financial markets."—Stein Frydenberg, Quantitative Finance Journal "A concise survey of arbitrage pricing models for commodities, this book may serve as an introduction to the subject and a textbook for a course on commodity price modeling with an eye toward implementation."—Professor Andrea Roncoroni, ESSEC Business School "This book represents a valuable synthesis of the most relevant classical concepts on commodity markets and of the related financial models.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Intuitive Expertise and Financial DecisionMaking
Book SynopsisThis book provides insights into the hidden role of intuitive expertise in financial decision-making. The authors show and discuss how expertise combined with intuitive judgments positively affect decision-making outcomes. The book builds on the latest academic studies in this emergent field. In combination with the academic perspective, the authors provide a field study that they conducted in the context of mergers and acquisitions (M&As), a common and critical strategic investment for companies. The interviews were carried out with experts and decision-makers in large and successful international companies (i.e., M&A experts, CEOs, CFOs, and board members). The book provides a solid theoretical and empirically based grounding of the topic. In addition, it offers suggestions to practitioners on how they can develop and nurture intuitive expertise in strategic investment decision-making. The report of the field study provides examples and quotes from interviews to visualize findings, Table of Contents1. Introduction 2. Experts and Expertise 3.Intuition 4. Intuitive Expertise 5.

Taylor & Francis Airline Finance
Book SynopsisRevised and updated in its fifth edition, this internationally renowned and respected book provides the essentials to understanding all areas of airline finance. Designed to address each of the distinct areas of financial management in an air transport industry context, it also shows how these fit together, while each chapter and topic for example, aircraft leasing provides a detailed resource that can also be consulted separately. Supported at each stage by practical airline examples and recent data, Airline Finance examines the financial trends and longer term prospects for the airline industry as a whole, contrasting the developments for the major regions and airlines together with critical discussion of key issues that affect the industry as a whole. Important techniques in financial analysis are applied to the airlines as well as their investors such as banks and other financial institutions. Thoroughly amended and updated throughout, and expanded Trade Review"Airline Finance, 5th edition, provides down-to-earth practical examples that enable students to work through and understand the various aspects of the syllabus. The book is easy to read and follow; a great advantage for international students who want to pursue careers in the air transport industry. I will use it extensively for my new graduate course on air transport finance."Professor Cherie Lu, Department of Aviation and Maritime Transportation Management, Chang Jung Christian University, Taiwan."The fifth edition of Dr Peter Morrell’s Airline Finance provides an expert update to what is the go-to book for those looking to understand the complex world of aviation finance. Dr Morrell provides useful, interesting and relevant insights using real-world examples taken from airlines’ annual reports, and expertly guides the reader in understanding how it all fits together. An impressive achievement."Patrick Healy, Chairman of Cathay Pacific Airways Ltd"I strongly recommend this updated edition of Airline Finance for any student of airline management, analysts of the industry and for those managing or regulating airlines – who really need to understand what airline financial statements show or what different financing structures mean. This is an excellent guide for those involved in, or fascinated by, the airline industry. It is not an academic text nor is it a manual of how to finance an airline. Instead, the descriptive style of writing and extensive use of good examples from the industry paints a clear and insightful picture for the reader of what could be dry accounting or finance theory. But in addition to enabling the non-specialist to interpret the numbers in an airlines balance sheet or cash flow statement, practical issues for management or regulators such as privatization, risk management, valuing assets are all covered in a way that illuminates the key issues for decision makers. This latest edition incorporates recent developments in issues such as consolidation, lease accounting and the innovative use of assets to back financing. The chapter on privatization has been retained – a wise decision given the extensive increase of Government involvement in airlines across the world as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. There will need to be extensive restructuring of the industry after the crisis, so this new edition of Airline Finance should be a key resource for many."Brian Pearce, Chief Economist, International Air Transport Association (IATA)Table of ContentsPreface;
