Finanzen

Weltweit gibt es über 160 verschiedene Währungen, jede mit einem Monopol innerhalb ihres eigenen Rechtsraums. Doch abgesehen von einer Handvoll stabilerer Währungen, verlieren die meisten von ihnen mit der Zeit rapide an Wert und finden kaum Akzeptanz außerhalb ihrer Landesgrenzen. Grenzüberschreitende Zahlungsengpässe, Umrechnungsprobleme und Währungswechsel machen das globale Finanzsystem in gewisser Weise zu einem modernen Tauschhandel. Wer im "falschen" Land geboren wurde, hat es besonders schwer, effektiv zu sparen. Während stetig steigende Energieproduktion und der technologische Fortschritt durch Elektronik unseren Lebensstandard kontinuierlich verbessert haben, hinkt das globale Finanzsystem dieser Entwicklung hinterher und bremst das wirtschaftliche Potenzial aus. Diese Problematik trifft nicht nur Schwellenländer, sondern wird zunehmend auch in den Industrieländern spürbar, wo Schulden und Defizite außer Kontrolle geraten und Wellen von Inflation und Bankenzusammenbrüchen die Weltwirtschaft erschüttern.Wie konnte es so weit kommen? Warum ist unser Geld im 21. Jahrhundert immer noch so unzulänglich?Politische Eingriffe können zwar kurzfristige und lokale Verbesserungen bringen, doch nur Technologie schafft nachhaltige und globale Veränderungen. Genau wie Gold einst Muscheln ersetzt hat, und wie Zentralbanken eine logische Konsequenz der Einführung von Geldscheinen aus Papyrus sind, und sogar wie die Erfindung des Telegraphen nur eine erste Etappe auf dem Entwicklungspfad hin zu Bitcoin darstellt, fällt die Bedeutsamkeit von Technologie insbesondere im Geldwesen auf.In BROKEN MONEY nimmt Lyn Alden ihre Leser mit auf eine spannende Reise durch die technologische Evolution des Geldes. Sie beleuchtet die Ursprünge des Geldwesens, wagt einen Blick in die Zukunft und hinterfragt die fundamentalen Grundlagen, auf denen unsere heutigen Geldsysteme beruhen.

While mainstream financial theories and applications assume that asset returns are normally distributed, overwhelming empirical evidence shows otherwise. Yet many professionals don't appreciate the highly statistical models that take this empirical evidence into consideration. Fat-Tailed and Skewed Asset Return Distributions examines this dilemma and offers readers a less technical look at how portfolio selection, risk management, and option pricing modeling should and can be undertaken when the assumption of a non-normal distribution for asset returns is violated. Topics covered in this comprehensive book include an extensive discussion of probability distributions, estimating probability distributions, portfolio selection, alternative risk measures, and much more. Fat-Tailed and Skewed Asset Return Distributions provides a bridge between the highly technical theory of statistical distributional analysis, stochastic processes, and econometrics of financial returns and real-world risk management and investments.
