This book is a guide to asset and risk management from a practical
point of view. It is centered around two questions triggered by the
global events on the stock markets since the middle of the last
decade: -Â Why do crashes happen when in theory they should
not? - Â How do investors deal with such crises in terms of
their risk measurement and management and as a consequence, what
are the implications for the chosen investment strategies? The book
presents and discusses two different approaches to finance and
investing, i.e., modern portfolio theory and behavioral finance,
and provides an overview of stock market anomalies and historical
crashes. It is intended to serve as a comprehensive introduction to
asset and risk management for bachelor’s and master’s students
in this field as well as for young professionals in the asset
management industry. A key part of this book is the exercises
to further demonstrate the concepts presented with examples and a
step-by-step business case. An Excel file with the
calculations and solutions for all 17 examples as well as all
business case calculations can be downloaded at
extras.springer.com.
