The Complete Guide to Capital Markets for Quantitative Professionals
About the book
The Complete Guide to Capital Markets for Quantitative Professionals by Alex Kuznetsov is a reference aimed at technologists and quantitative analysts entering finance. Rather than teaching the maths of pricing, it explains how the financial markets actually work as a system: the instruments (stocks, bonds, derivatives), the participants (banks, funds, exchanges), the trade lifecycle, and the technology and data infrastructure that support them. It is written for the programmer or engineer who needs to understand the business context their software serves.
