Portfolio Theory and Performance Analysis

Summary
For many years, asset management was considered to be a marginal activity, but today, it is central to the development of the financial industry throughout the world. Asset management's transition from an "art and craft" to an industry has inevitably called integrated business models into question, favouring specialisation strategies based on cost optimisation and learning curve objectives. This book connects each of these major categories of techniques and practices to the unifying and seminal conceptual developments of modern portfolio theory.
