Financial markets are fascinating but successful investing is not easy. While the future looms as unknowable as ever, IN SEARCH OF RETURNS will help you to: > Evaluate the relationship between 'expected' risk and returns in financial decision-making; > Understand different investment asset classes and investment strategies; > Appreciate the influence of cognitive biases in asset pricing and investment behaviour. It's a timely guide to making sense of the financial markets.
