    About this series

    Consumers are rapidly leaving their banks in favor of institutions that are lower-cost and more consumer-centric--and flocking to new institutions that are not even banks, but possess a superior customer proposition. Electronic payments are the future. Thought leader in financial innovation for PayPal Dan Schatt covers what banks must learn to compete and thrive in this new environment. This book covers: Industry leaders PayPal, Google, Square, and Facebook, along with new up and comers--to show how banks can partner and accelerate innovation.  The changing landscape of the retail point of sale and the need for banks to partner with digital wallet providers. What capabilities banks should truly own and which they should outsource. Where revenue may be derived in the future and how to shift gears to focus on greenfield market opportunities versus non-profitable markets. Best practices that banks can employ on their digital channels that can make their customer experience similar to some of the best commerce websites out on the market today. The latest and scariest type of innovators --prepaid card companies and online companies that outsource their regulatory requirements to financial institutions--and how banks can beat them at their own game.

      4/5 - 14 ratings

      Inside the Black Box explains how quantitative and algorithmic trading strategies work in non-mathematical terms supplemented by anecdotes and real-world stories. There is a large chasm in the understanding of what quants do with quants often perpetuating the darkness by cloaking even trivial facts about their strategies and operations in secrecy. Most of their strategies are understandable and with that understanding investment professionals can better assess a particular fund's value. The book also explains how quant strategies fit into a portfolio, why they are valuable, and how to evaluate a quant manager. How do quants capture alpha? What is the real level of discretion in quant trading? What is the difference between theory-driven systems vs. data-mining strategies? What are the typical structures of quant systems? How do quants model risk? How do you know if it works? What are execution algorithms?

      The Risk of Trading: Mastering the Most Important Element in Financial Speculation

      Michael Toma
      5/5 - 10 ratings
      5/5 - 10 ratings

      The Risk of Trading takes an in-depth look at the challenges traders have in regards to one of the most critical facets of trading: risk management. The book takes a magnifying look at risk that every trader needs to have and understand in order to be successful in trading. Most traders look at risk in terms of a "stop-loss" that enables them to exit a losing trade quickly. In The Risk of Trading, Michael Toma explains that risk is ever-present in every aspect of trading and advocates that traders adopt a more comprehensive view of risk that encompasses the strategic trading plan; account size; drawdowns; maximum possible losses; psychological capital; and crisis management. He advocates that traders conduct a detailed statistical analysis of their methodology through backtesting and real-time results so as to identify when the methodology may be breaking down in actual trading. Ultimately, Toma asserts, traders should look at themselves more as project managers who are constantly managing risk rather than gamblers placing bets and hoping over time to come out ahead. In so doing, traders will begin to operate more as business managers and are much likely to avoid market-busting losses and achieve consistently good results.

      In Regulating Wall Street, Stern has assembled a team of experts, each a specialist in a relevant discipline, to assess the strengths and weaknesses of the legislation that is now on the table. Not all of the issues addressed in the current legislation are equally important. Some, such as financial sector compensation and consumer protection - are perhaps not central to future financial stability. Others, such as the future role of the Federal Reserve, the approach to systemic risk, the restructuring of too-big-to-fail institutions, and the shadow banking system that houses OTC derivative and money markets, are undoubtedly critical to the future safety and soundness of the financial system. The debates will be both heated and ongoing - as will the book's commentary; with a blog to accompany the book upon publication, the editors and contributors will have a forum to continue their discussions regarding the effects of the future legislation, as well as opening up the debate to readers.

I worked at a major investment bank, and while I didn’t think the disastrous deal I’d done would cause its collapse, my losses were quickly decimating its commodities profits for the year, along with the potential pay of my more profitable colleagues.
