Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
John C. Hull’s Financial Risk Management text is the only text to take risk management theory and explain it in a “this is how you do it” manner for practical application in today’s real world.
We found that most professors are looking for a book that contains up to date information, and is written for application in the real work environment. Hull’s text offers students the ability to gain knowledge that will stay with them beyond college and be useful in the real world.
Based on one of the most popular MBA courses at University of Toronto entitled “Financial Risk Management”, this text focuses on the ways banks and other financial institutions measure market, credit and operational risk. John C. Hull, author of the book “Options, Futures, and Other Derivatives” which became the standard reference text for traders, wrote “Risk Management and Financial Institutions” for use in instruction as well as trade. The practical nature of the book lends itself to a “this is how you do it” presentation style that includes excellent account of the new Basel II regulatory requirements for banks effective in 2007.

This book is similar to "Options Futures and Other Derivatives", John Hull's big book, but it does have roughly 40-50% new banking material. At least half is recycled from Hull's other book, which is a better book, in my opinion.
I don't know if this price justifies 50% recycled content. And the math is notably simple. The material on copulas might make it into a future edition of Hull's other book, but banking topics like Basel, operational risk, economic capital, etc. probably will not.
My main complaint is that the hardcover version of this book seems very cheaply made -- over the course of one semester, the binding broke on every one of roughly 20 copies in our class, and pages were falling out all over. I have a beat-up copy of Hull's other book, and the binding is still fine.

This is a good one, nut I am a little disappointing about the material
which is most covered in Hull's "Options, Futures, and Other Derivatives"
Except some idea about "Copula"!
