For the last twenty years "The Research in Finance Book Series" has
been publishing papers that cover issues of significance and
interest in finance and economics. The topics found in the series
span a wide range and have made substantial contributions to the
literature with articles from key figures in the world of finance.
Volume 26, "Coping with Systemic Risk", is no exception and
provides a valuable addition to the current research of finance in
this area. The lead chapter sets the theme by giving insight into
economic systems as packages containing multiple real options where
the rational exercise of these options then shapes the outcomes
from the system. Remaining chapters explore the use of commodities
like oil as a means of improving the diversification of portfolios
containing equities, reliability tests for traditional accounting
measures to predict the onset of financial distress, the behavior
of metal prices such as aluminium and steel, and other issues
relevant for a better-diversified investor. Key reading for
academics and practitioners alike, its audience will range from
financial economists and accountants in academia to executives with
financial duties.
