""I've worked with simulation in business for over 20 years, and
Allman really nails it with this book. I admit that I own his
previous book on structured finance cash flows, but I was surprised
by what I found in here. He addresses the fundamental questions of
how decision makers react to simulations and his read was very much
in accordance with what I've experienced myself. When it came to
the nuts and bolts of describing the different types of simulation
analysis the book becomes incredibly detailed. There is working
code and models for a fantastic array of the most common simulation
problems. If you're so inclined, the book very carefully steps
through the tricky math needed to really understand the theory
behind stochastic modeling in finance. If you're preparing models
that include any kind of randomization or stochastic modeling
component, this book is a must-read, a tremendous value and
time-saver."" -- David Brode of The Brode Group
A practical guide to understanding and implementing financial
simulation modeling
As simulation techniques become more popular among the financial
community and a variety of sub-industries, a thorough understanding
of theory and implementation is critical for practitioners involved
in portfolio management, risk management, pricing, and capital
budgeting. "Financial Simulation Modeling in Excel" contains the
information you need to make the most informed decisions possible
in your professional endeavors.
"Financial Simulation Modeling in Excel" contains a practical,
hands-on approach to learning complex financial simulation
methodologies using Excel and VBA as a medium. Crafted in an easy
to understand format, this book is suitable for anyone with a basic
understanding of finance and Excel. Filled with in-depth insights
and expert advice, each chapter takes you through the theory behind
a simulation topic and the implementation of that same topic in
Excel/VBA in a step-by-step manner.Organized in an easy-to-follow
fashion, this guide effectively walks you through the process of
creating and implementing risk models in ExcelA companion website
contains all the Excel models risk experts and quantitative
analysts need to practice and confirm their results as they
progressKeith Allman is the author of other successful modeling
books, including "Corporate Valuation Modeling" and "Modeling
Structured Finance Cash Flows with Microsoft Excel"
Created for those with some background in finance and experience
in Excel, this reliable resource shows you how to effectively
perform sound financial simulation modeling, even if you've yet to
do extensive modeling up to this point in your professional or
