Derivatives: economic impact dissected, theory meets history.

If you've heard about derivatives and felt bewildered by how they work or their impact on the economy, this book presents a comprehensive exploration that's both theoretical and grounded in recent economic history. You’ll gain a balanced perspective on the often-debated effects these complex financial instruments have had over the years. It could transform confusion into clarity and provide a deeper understanding of financial markets.

Description

While most books on derivatives discuss how they work, this book looks at the contributions of derivatives to overall economic well-being. It examines both the beneficial and adverse effects of derivatives trading from the perspectives of economic theory, empirical evidence and recent economic history. Aiming to present the concepts in a fair, non-ideological, non-mathematical and simple manner, and with the authors' own synthesis, it draws on economic insights from relevant work in other disciplines, particularly sociology and law. The book also presents some new theoretical ideas and recommendations towards a pragmatic and practical approach for policy-makers. The ultimate objective is to provide a basic conceptual framework which will help its readers form a judgement on whether, when and how derivatives are beneficial or harmful to the economy.
