This book provides a comprehensive treatment of credit risk assessment and credit risk rating that meets the Advanced Internal Risk-Based (AIRB) approach of Basel II. Credit risk analysis looks at many risks and this book covers all the critical areas that credit professionals need to know, including country analysis, industry analysis, financial analysis, business analysis, and management analysis. Organized under two methodological approaches to credit analysis—a criteria-based approach, which is a hybrid of expert judgement and purely mathematical methodologies, and a mathematical approach using regression analysis to model default probability—the book covers a cross-section of industries including passenger airline, commercial real estate, and commercial banking. In three parts, the sections focus on hybrid models, statistical models, and credit management. While the book provides theory and principles, its emphasis is on practical applications, and will appeal to credit practitioners in the banking and investment community alongside college and university students who are preparing for a career in lending.

It will be of interest to geographers, political scientists, sociologists, economists, planners and all those interested in how money shapes and reshapes socio-economic space and conditions local and regional development.
This book offers a comprehensive and coherent presentation of almost all aspects of Capital Market Finance, providing hands-on knowledge of advanced tools from mathematical finance in a practical setting. Filling the gap between traditional finance textbooks, which tend to avoid advanced mathematical techniques used by professionals, and books in mathematical finance, which are often more focused on mathematical refinements than on practical uses, this book employs advanced mathematical techniques to cover a broad range of key topics in capital markets. In particular, it covers all primitive assets (equities, interest and exchange rates, indices, bank loans), most vanilla and exotic derivatives (swaps, futures, options, hybrids and credit derivatives), portfolio theory and management, and risk assessment and hedging of individual positions as well as portfolios. Throughout, the authors emphasize the methodological aspects and probabilistic foundations of financial asset valuation, risk assessment and measurement. Background in financial mathematics, particularly stochastic calculus, is provided as needed, and over 200 fully worked numerical examples illustrate the theory. Based on the authors' renowned master's degree courses, this book is written for students in business and finance, as well as practitioners in quantitative finance. Apart from an undergraduate-level knowledge of calculus, linear algebra and probability, the book is self-contained with no prior knowledge of market finance required.
Many standard BOP models have been undergoing radical transformations. Newer functioning models with inclusivity with holistic, systems approach is the mantra. Development has morphed into community leadership, and societal fabric building now frames the effect of corporate governance activities on shareholder value. Not surprisingly, new voices have been calling for reinvention of marketing. CEO's cannot get clear, compelling answers about marketing's impact on the bottom line. The adage of Sam Wanamaker- that he knows that 50 percent of his advertisement works but he does not know which half –still haunts management. Consider the following: Economic liberalisation has given a new impetus to the hospitality industry. It costs an average of US$50-80 million to set up five-star hotels with 300 rentable rooms in India. The gestation period is usually between three and four years. Movements in real estate prices have to be watched, though they have stabilised in the past three years or so. Non-five-star hotels are obviously cheaper and have smaller gestation periods, but international chains are expected to go into the five-star category. Biswajit Pattajoshi offers not only a candid critique of eradicating poverty, through bottom of pyramid spins but more important a clear agenda –indeed the Samaritans agenda-for meaningful change in end of poverty by immortal brand equity white horse. He calls upon leadership to deliver value and solutions, not physicality colours. He believes that the stalwart must understand their building blocks and operations from finance to supplier partnerships. They must co-operate and compete on multidisciplinary teams, because BOP model fails whenever any part of greater agenda fails to cohort with great acres. BOP's are posing titan challenges to manage marketing tornadoes, many of which are exemplary spectaculars in waves of shareholders. Marketing change agents have led to innovative, community building indispensability models that track futuristic transformation eradicating poverty, establishing peace revolution. If community building model's take-off profits are harnessed by the BOP.
