Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The passage from 'solid' to 'liquid'modernity has created a new and unprecedented setting forindividual life pursuits, confronting individuals with a series ofchallenges never before encountered. Social forms and institutionsno longer have enough time to solidify and cannot serve as framesof…reference for human actions and long-term life plans, soindividuals have to find other ways to organise their lives. Theyhave to splice together an unending series of short-term projectsand episodes that don't add up to the kind of sequence towhich concepts like 'career' and 'progress'could meaningfully be applied. Such fragmented lives requireindividuals to be flexible and adaptable - to be constantlyready and willing to change tactics at short notice, to abandoncommitments and loyalties without regret and to pursueopportunities according to their current availability. In liquidmodernity the individual must act, plan actions and calculate thelikely gains and losses of acting (or failing to act) underconditions of endemic uncertainty.Zygmunt Bauman's brilliant writings on liquid modernityhave altered the way we think about the contemporary world. In thisshort book he explores the sources of the endemic uncertainty whichshapes our lives today and, in so doing, he provides the readerwith a brief and accessible introduction to his highly originalaccount, developed at greater length in his previous books, of lifein our liquid modern times.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Structured Finance: The Object Orientated Approach is aimed at both the finance and IT professionals involved in the structured finance business with the intention of sharing common concepts and language within the industry. The financial community (structurers, pricers and risk managers) view struc…tured products as collections of objects under the so-called replicating portfolio paradigm. The IT community use object oriented programming (OOP) techniques to improve the software updating and maintenance process. For them structured products are collections of objects as well. Despite use of the same object concept, it looks like communication between these different professional functions has been problematic. Recently, construction of standard data structures known as FpML has begun to lay out a common definition of objects, at least for plain vanilla derivatives, both between IT and financial people and across different market players. Along this line, this book builds upon the concept of object to provide frontier treatment of structured finance issues relevant to both communities engaged in building, pricing and hedging products and people engaged in designing and up-dating the corresponding software.Structured Finance: The Object Orientated Approach will enable you to:\* decompose a structured product in elementary constituent financial objects and risk factors (replicating portfolio)\* understand the basics of object oriented programming (OOP) applied to the design of structured cash flows objects\* build your own objects and to understand FpML data structures available for standard products\* gauge risk exposures of the objects in structured products to: risk factors, their volatilities and the correlation among them (which factor are you long/short Are you long/short volatility Are you long/short correlation )\* update your risk management system to accommodate structured products with non linear exposures and to design objects to represent, price and hedge, counterparty risk.
