Quantitative Methods for Investment Analysis provides a blend of theory and practice to teach statistics within the context of finance and investments. No prior financial knowledge is assumed. Several features of this book are tailored specifically to help the reader. First, learning outcome statements (LOS) specify the objective of each chapter. Second, examples and problem practice are emphasized so that the reader can gain confidence in meeting the LOS objectives. Finally, examples and problems seek to present situations faced by investment practitioners and reflect the global investment community.

Global Investments, the Sixth Edition of the previously titled International Investments, provides accessible coverage of international capital markets using numerous examples to illustrate the applications of concepts and theories. The new title reflects the current understanding that the distinction between domestic and international is no longer relevant and that asset management is global. This book is ideal for CFA(r) (Chartered Financial Analyst) candidates, advanced finance undergraduates, and MBA students, and it has been selected by the CFA Institute as part of the curriculum to deliver the Candidate Body of Knowledge for the CFA. The text is also widely used by professionals working in the investments area, as the level is accessible to students and portfolio managers without recent training in portfolio theory.
