Reviews


fix inc. review very good
The book is the best in the business and the bible of fix income instruments. I bought it to review some concepts and I am very happy I did.

Very useful reference
Good reference for bond math and a great thing to have on any debt capital markets desk.. I use it very frequently.. its a classic ..

So far so good
Great purchase. The authors do a superb job of describing topics in basic terms then escalate to the nitty gritty number crunching behind the concepts. I recommend for anyone needing a complete guide to FI securities.

good overall reference
very good as a reference and general overview; if you want more detail and in-depth analysis you should look for something else but there's lots of specific lieterature out there so this still makes a good starting point

nice overview of a wide range of topics
i give 4.5 stars.

many reviewers comment that this book lacks depth, but hey, it just tries to give a general overview on a variety of fixed income securities, that's what it is, and this book does reasonably well on this purpose. it never means to contain everything on every fixed income securities.

the only thing i am concerned is that the page numbers listed on the index sometimes do not match.
