Derivative Security Pricing Techniques, Methods and Applications / by Carl Chiarella, Xue-Zhong He, Christina Sklibosios Nikitopoulos.

The book presents applications of stochastic calculus to derivative security pricing and interest rate modelling. By focusing more on the financial intuition of the applications rather than the mathematical formalities, the book provides the essential knowledge and understanding of fundamental conce...
