This book focuses on the core issues in money and banking. By using simple applications for anyone that understands basic ecomics, the lessons in the book provide any student or reader with a background in how financial markets work, how banks as businesses function, how central banks make decisions, and how monetary policy affects the global ecomy. Money and Banking is split into sections based on subject matter, specifically definitions and introductions, financial markets, microecomic issues, macroecomy policy, and international finance. It also covers: - derivative and currency markets - the microecomics of banking - trade and currency movements - asymmetric information and derivative markets - the future of financial markets and their participants By providing a mix of microecomic and macroecomic applications, focusing on both international examples and open ecomy macroecomics, this book reduces the minutiae seen in competing books. Each chapter provides summaries of what should be learned along the way and why the chapter's topic is important, regardless of current events. For undergraduate business, ecomics or social science students otherwise, this book is a concise source of information on money, banking and financial markets.
