This book explores the behavior of interest rates as they relate to changing market conditions, and examines how risk can be managed. It successfully bridges the gap between interest-rate theory and its application to fixed-income security portfolio management. Coverage includes the function of financial markets, the flow-of-funds system, foundations for interest rates, inflation and returns, derivative securities, the influence of taxes, and the social l allocation of capital. For those in the financial community, in business, and in government, who are concerned with investing in or issuing fixed-income securities.

Financial Market Rates and Flows, Sixth Edition, provides conceptual basis from which to understand interest rates, how they behave with changing market conditions, and how risk can be managed. This highly respected text can be used for courses in undergraduate investments, graduate investments, financial markets and institutions, fixed income securities, bond markets, and money and banking.

- New section on liquidity presents students with information on the treatment of credit ratings, default losses and migration patterns, quality yield spreads over time, high-yield debt, and yield spreads with respect to maturity.
- Updated data on the flow of funds (chapter 2) offers students new information regarding the total debt outstanding for various major sectors of the economy.
- Enhanced coverage on inflation and returns introduces students to a section on inflation-indexed bonds and Treasury TIPS.
- Improved chapter on the term structure of interest rates (chapter 6) familiarizes students with modeling the term structure as well as with relevant empirical work.
- Detailed treatment of bond portfolio management illustrates for students the arbitrage efficiency between zero-coupon and coupon bonds with an actual situation.
- Expanded chapter on derivative securities enables students to explore a very important market that is continually developing.
- Rewritten chapter on mortgage securities that covers mortgage derivatives, modeling prepayments, and "TBA" pricing that reflects important changes in mortgage-backed securities.
