     Summary

The expert author team of Mark Anson, frank Fabozzi, and frank Jones has extensive experience in the field of finance, and now, with the handbook of traditional and alternative investment vehicles, they provide a soup-to-nuts description of the numerous financial instruments that exist in the marketplace. After a thorough discussion of traditional assets, including real estate and real estate investment trusts (REITs), the handbook of traditional and alternative investment vehicles then ventures into the world of alternative assets, offering both a descriptive overview of the many types and styles of hedge funds as well as how to invest in them. The authors also cover the world of private equity-dedicating a chapter to each of the four parts of this world: leveraged buyouts, venture capital, mezzanine debt, and distressed debt-and also take the time to address commodities, which in recent decades, have developed as an important asset class. The handbook of traditional and alternative investment vehicles goes beyond the spectrum of most finance books by offering professionals in-depth knowledge, strategies, and techniques on a broad range of assets necessary to excel in today’s dynamic market.
