Financial Economics and Econometrics by Nikiforos T Laopodis

Financial Economics and Econometrics provides an overview of the core topics in theoretical and empirical finance, with an emphasis on applications and interpreting results. Structured in five parts, the book covers financial data and univariate models; asset returns; interest rates, yields and spreads; volatility and correlation; and corporate finance and policy. Each chapter begins with a theory in financial economics, followed by econometric methodologies which have been used to explore the theory. Next, the chapter presents empirical evidence and discusses seminal papers on the topic. Boxes offer insights on how an idea can be applied to other disciplines such as management, marketing and medicine, showing the relevance of the material beyond finance. Readers are supported with plenty of worked examples and intuitive explanations throughout the book, while key takeaways, ‘test your knowledge’ and ‘test your intuition’ features at the end of each chapter also aid student learning. Digital supplements including PowerPoint slides, computer codes supplements, an Instructor’s Manual and Solutions Manual are available for instructors. This textbook is suitable for upper-level undergraduate and graduate courses on financial economics, financial econometrics, empirical finance and related quantitative areas.

"This unique textbook combines financial economics and financial econometrics at the theoretical and empirical standpointsOne additional novelty is the boxes demonstrating the linkages between Financial Economics/Econometrics with other disciplines such as Management and Marketing. The Computer Codes supplement (for Eviews, RATS, Stata and SPSS) is essential to students who wish to apply the econometric methodologies featured in the book. In all, this textbook can be required reading for undergraduate courses in other Business disciplines, MBA students as well as for financial professionals."
