Often financial computing guidebooks provide only quick-and-dirty implementations of financial models, rarely related to real-world applications. Professional Financial Computing Using Excel and VBA provides reusable, flexible, real-world implementations of financial models. The book explores financial models, like derivatives pricings, market and credit risk modeling, and advanced interest rate modeling. With step-by-step instructions, this resource reviews fundamental financial theories and concepts, as well as alternative approaches to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the different techniques. This text is an ideal reference for graduate students studying financial engineering and computing.
