Summary

Thoroughly updated to reflect recent research and includes many additional examples. Rigorous, yet not overly complex, it makes extensive use of empirical examples and evidence to keep investment theory and analysis from becoming too abstract for students to grasp. The Fourth Edition includes thorough, up-to-date coverage of multi-index models and international diversification as well as new material on portfolio management that examines not only the different types of investment strategies used, but the underlying philosophies behind those strategies. Instructor's Manual available.
