    Understanding arbitrage : an intuitive approach to investment analysis (2006)
    Upper Saddle River, N.J. : Wharton School Pub. | Boston, MA :Safari,
    Details
    Language: English
    Pages: p. cm
    DDC: 332.64/5
    Keywords: Arbitrage ; Hedging (Finance) ; Speculation ; Electronic books ; local
    Abstract: Arbitrage is central both to corporate risk management and to a wide range of investment strategies. Thousands of financial executives, managers, and sophisticated investors want to understand it, but most books on arbitrage are far too abstract and technical to serve their needs. Billingsley addresses this untapped market with the first accessible and realistic guide to the concepts and modern practice of arbitrage. It relies on intuition, not advanced math: readers will find basic algebra sufficient to understand it and begin using its methods. The author starts with a lucid introduction to the fundamentals of arbitrage, including the Laws of One Price and One Expected Return. Using realistic examples, he shows how to identify assets and portfolios ripe for exploitation: mispriced commodities, securities, misvalued currencies; interest rate differences; and more. You'll learn how to establish relative prices between underlying stock, puts, calls, and 'riskless' securities like Treasury bills -- and how these techniques support derivatives pricing and hedging. Billingsley then illuminates options pricing, the heart of modern risk management and financial engineering. He concludes with an accessible introduction to the Nobel-winning Modigliani-Miller theory, and its use in analyzing capital structure.

    Pages: xliv, 256 p. , ill. ; , 24 cm
    Keywords: Business ethics ; Leadership ; Moral and ethical aspects ; Moral development ; Success in business ; Moral and ethical aspects ; Electronic books ; local
    Abstract: Through a combination of research, and original thought leadership, the authors demonstrate how the best performing companies have leaders who actively apply moral values to achieve enduring personal and organizational success. These individuals exhibit moral intelligence: a strong moral compass and the ability to follow it. Lennick and Kiel reveal how dozens of companies benefit from the moral intelligence of their leaders, help build specific moral competencies leaders need: integrity, responsibility, compassion, forgiveness, and more. This book also includes the new Moral and Emotional Competency Inventory (MECI): an indispensable metric to assess moral intelligence. Leaders with strong moral intelligence can build the trust and commitment that are the foundation of truly great businesses. Be one of those leaders, lead one of those companies, with Moral Intelligence.

    Abstract: By 2015, China may well have the world's largest economy. In The Chinese Century, Oded Shenkar shows how China is restoring its imperial glory by infusing modern technology and market economics into a non-democratic system controlled by the Communist party and bureaucracy. Shenkar shows why China's quest for global success differs radically from predecessors such as Japan, India, and Mexico... why it represents a fundamental restructuring of the global business system... and why it will transform the roles of participants in the global economy. He previews tomorrow's new competitive ground rules, terms of employment, and consumption patterns, and shows how Chinese ascendancy is redrawing political, economic, and social battle lines. Learn why the U.S. is most vulnerable to China's ascent... how China's disregard for intellectual property creates sustainable competitive advantage... how China's growth impacts global businesses and individual purchasing decisions. Above all, Shenkar shows what you must do to survive and prosper in "The Chinese Century."

"This book deals very bravely with the opportunity of technology entrepreneurship. This is a great, courageous effort." -Jerome S. Engel, Executive Director, Lester Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation, University of California, Berkeley " Finding Fertile Ground provides a terrifically engaging perspective on the mindset of the successful entrepreneur. Scott Shane's well-structured analysis and thought-provoking conclusions give would-be entrepreneurs a great set of tools to use in assessing opportunities and risks. I highly recommend this as a 'must-read' for anyone considering starting a new venture." -David Courtney, Executive Vice President and Board Member of TiVo, Inc. "Truly great technology startup opportunities are very rare and therefore very hard to identify. Scott Shane's new book is unique because it helps technology entrepreneurs systematically analyze their idea, step by step through ten major screens, much like the prospector screens away dirt to expose any nuggets of gold. It is a must read for entrepreneurs determined to build only great high tech businesses." -Ian C. MacMillan, Academic Director: Snider Entrepreneurial Research Center, Sullivan Professor of Management The Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania "If you don't have the money to pay for this book now, give the bookstore an IOU. Your chances of being able to pay it back with high interest will rise with every chapter. The author and I share two core beliefs: the critical importance of selling, and the need for potential entrepreneurs to be tech savvy, even if they are not techie." -Kenneth P. Morse, Managing Director, MIT Entrepreneurship Center The author of over 50 scholarly articles on entrepreneurship and innovation management, Dr. Shane's books include A General Theory of Entrepreneurship, Foundations of Entrepreneurship, Entrepreneurship: A Process Perspective, and Academic Entrepreneurship. He edits the Innovation and Entrepreneurship Division of the leading scholarly journal, Management Science. Dr. Shane holds a Ph.D. from The Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania.

    The next global stage : challenges and opportunities in our borderless world (2005)

    Abstract: Globalization is a fact. You can't stop it; it has already happened; it is here to stay. And we are moving into a new global stage. A radically new world is taking shape from the ashes of yesterday's nation-based economic world. To succeed, you must act on the global stage, leveraging radically new drivers of economic power and growth. Legendary business strategist Kenichi Ohmae-who in The Borderless World , published in 1990, predicted the rise and success of globalization, coining the very word-synthesizes today's emerging trends into the first coherent view of tomorrow's global economy-and its implications for politics, business, and personal success. Ohmae explores the dynamics of the new "region state," tomorrow's most potent economic institution, and demonstrates how China is rapidly becoming the exemplar of this new economic paradigm. The Next Global Stage offers a practical blueprint for businesses, governments, and individuals who intend to thrive in this new environment. Ohmae concludes with a detailed look at strategy in an era where it's tougher to define competitors, companies, and customers than ever before. As important as Huntington's The Clash of Civilizations , as fascinating as Friedman's The Lexus and the Olive Tree , this book doesn't just explain what's already happened: It offers a roadmap for action in the world that's beginning to emerge. Why Keynes' and Milton Friedman's economics are -and what might replace them New economics for a borderless world history From Windows to English to your global brand Leveraging today's most powerful platforms for growth Anticipating technological obsolescence-and jumping ahead of it Technology: driving business death-and rebirth What government can do when nation-states don't matter Government in the post-national era Honing your global vision and global leadership skills Leadership and strategy on the global stage
