Von der hinteren Coverseite

Substantially revised and updated, the fifth edition of this popular textbook provides a comprehensive explanation of the workings of the UK financial system, taking full account of the substantial regulatory changes introduced after the financial crisis of 2007-8. The discussion is based on both the underlying theory as well as the operating practices of the institutions and markets, and extensive statistics are provided to supplement the narrative.

The book is divided into three sections:

1) financial institutions
2) financial markets
3) the regulation of banks and other financial organisations

Each of these is accompanied by a glossary, and there are additional introductory and concluding chapters. This structure allows for the book to be used as a full course on the UK financial system or as individual components on a modular basis, making it an accessible and versatile resource for undergraduate students in finance, economics and business studies, as well as general readers interested in the UK financial system.
