Modern Banking

This is an excellent first retail banking book. It covers all the topics of banking business, going from banking terms through Basilea, banking crashes or even a few notes on credit management. It's a perfect book for those who want to go through the retail banking world, or those who want to unerstand how the retail banking works. An state-of-the art exposition!!!

The book describes how banks function and explains how these businesses are structured. After reading the book one should be able to understand how these organizations create crisis after crisis without facing prosecution!!

Good item, Thank you :)

This book is an overview of the international banking industry. Instead of focusing on banking in a particular country, the author discussed general types of banks, banking services, banking regulations in different countries, ways how the regulations influence banking in countries with various types of economy and financial systems (USA, Britain, EU countries, Japan, emerging economies of Russia, China, Latin America and Islamic countries). The large part of the book is devoted to analysis of bank failures and survival of banks in financial crises. The book contains enormous amount of compressed material and real-world examples.The book is written in clear language and can be read without prior knowledge in the field, except the chapter on the competitive issues in banking, which requires some understanding of basic methods of Econometrics. The book gives brief introduction into financial securities and derivatives, but some prior knowledge is preferable for better understanding of the material.The book was written with the particular university course in mind, but the scope and depth of the presented material make it useful for anyone who wishes to broaden his understanding of international finance.

This book is great reading for anyone in the financial world that needs to know how modern banking works. Great for professionals and students that need a real comprehensive view of international modern banking.
