Book Description

The book features an introduction to the structure and mechanics of repo, institutional practices and real-world examples. In addition the content includes necessary supplementary material such as bank asset and liability management, trading techniques, and a range of other applications of value in the global money markets.

Repo markets play a pivotal role in the world's economy. The Repo Handbook is the definitive, comprehensive guide to this most important element of the global debt capital markets. It describes the use, motivations and mechanics of the repo instrument, and features invaluable coverage of specific country markets and institutions. The reader is taken through classic repo, sell/buy backs and structured repo, as well as additional products such as the total return swap and securities lending. As important is the treatment of related areas, such as money markets, banking asset & liability management and the implied repo rate, vital to a full understanding of repo.

This book is the ultimate guide for bankers, repo traders and salespersons, money market participants, corporate treasurers, debt finance professionals and is organized into three parts:

Part I covers the repo instrument, and examines repo mechanics and use of repo. There is also a look at selected country repo markets around the world.

Part II of the book considers the institutional treatment of repo, with chapters on risk, netting, accounting, and legal issues. There is also a chapter on equity repo.

Part III looks at basis trading and the implied repo rate. This includes results of original research on the gilt bond basis, presented in accessible style.

* A complete guide to repo, including introductions to money markets and bonds
* Contains the author's personal anecdotes from trading
* Covers every aspect of repo for all participants including legal, tax, accounting and back office

5 out of 5 stars Very comprehensive coverage of Repo and money markets.......2004-03-12

This is a very good book on repo, money markets, and bank ALM. It is written in very accessible style and has very clear examples, descriptions, worked examples, and screen pictures. The author has also demonstrated how repo fits in with the other money markets. Highly recommended, a good guide to repo and stock lending.

1 out of 5 stars Identity Crisis.......2004-01-23

It is interesting that most, if not all, of the 5-star reviews below appear to be written by the author's? aliases. For instance, the Oct. 7, Oct, 20, both Oct 22 reviews, and the Nov. 4 review all currently originate from X Moore from "John Rasheed", although in the past they've all shown London or Cape Town origin as "John Rasheed" sought to cover his tracks.

"Mr. Gagan Singh" writes several negative reviews of other books, but positive reviews of Mr. Choudhry's books. "Mr. Gagan Singh" wrote negative reviews of Ms. Stigum's "The Money Market" and alternately hails from NY, the USA, Capetown or from wherever next this chameleon chooses to hail as the reviews change.

"Matthew Bartlett" is another alias used on two book reviews of Fabozzi's "Collateralized Debt Obligations" book. One of the "Matthew Bartlett" reviews is signed "Moorad Choudhry" and praises the book with 5-stars, but the other review is unsigned and gives the book a one-star review. This is a serious identity crisis.

5 out of 5 stars Great book - don't believe the negative hype.......2004-01-07

If you want to buy the best guide to repo and money markets, buy this book - forget what any US-based reviewers are saying casting ridiculous accusations about the author. The book is great - end of story. Buy it!

                This book is not suitable for self-study. Nowhere in the editorial review did it say this, so I thought I'd put it out there. All of the questions and comparative thinking sections are meant for a native or advanced Spanish speaker to answer for you. The answers are not found anywhere.

                                    5 out of 5 stars A great book for learning and implementing financial plans.......1998-03-12

                                    This book starts off with the basics but then goes into the details of each subject. It goes well beyond the other books which usually say to do or not do something but does not go into the details of why. I hightly recommended this book.

                                        This study analyses seasonal variations in monthly per person tourist spending in Turkish inbound tourism from a market segmentation perspective. In this study a seasonal unit root test and recently developed decomposition techniques (TRAMO-SEATS, X-12-ARIMA) are used. It is found that there is a stochastic and strong seasonality in per person tourist spending data. The findings interestingly show that the seasonal pattern in per person tourist spending is considerably different from the seasonal pattern in tourist arrivals. The results have implications for decision-makers in tourism both at micro- and macro-levels in terms of effective resource allocation and market segmentation.

                                          Description:
                                          To mitigate the ill-effects of seasonality in the tourism industry, efforts to attract tourists during non-peak seasons must become more effective, but this can be accomplished only by better understanding the nature of low season markets. To enhance our understanding of the fall tourism market, this article presents insights gained from a telephone survey of households in the Great Lakes region. Fall tourists, compared to their summer counterparts, were found to be older, less likely to travel with children, and less active in recreation. Fall color viewing rarely motivated trips and was much more prevalent as an ancillary activity. Distinct types of fall tourists were identified based on patterns of participation in trip activities and whether trips began during the early, middle, or late fall.

                                            Description:
                                            The study analysed the seasonality of foreign tourists' space consumption in Estonia using mobile positioning dataset with anonymous roaming data. The method which uses mobile phone positioning coordinates in space-time movement studies in Estonia is called the social positioning method. The dataset allowed analysis of the distribution of foreigners' country of origin in Estonia with the precision of network cells of mobile operators. Privacy of mobile phone holders was guaranteed according to EU regulation. It was concluded that seasonality produces very different and sometimes even opposite tourists' space consumption patterns in Estonia. Coastal areas are popular for summer tourism and not so popular in winter; continental inland areas were used more for winter tourism. The popular summer tourism areas along the Baltic Sea beaches are dominated by one nationality: the Finnish in western Estonia, and the Russians in eastern Estonia. Latvians made up a higher percentage in Saaremaa and Parnu during summer and in Otepaa and Lake Peipsi in winter. The mobile positioning data have great potential for tourism studies and monitoring, but is a sensitive issue due to the fear of surveillance.

                                              Book Description

                                              Seasonal variation in demand is a reality for most tourism destinations. To challenge seasonality or to work within its constraints is a destination management issue that faces tourism planners throughout the world. It is an issue that is recognised particularly in regions of the extreme north or south where climate variation imposes directly on the management of tourism.

                                              This book is the first to gather a wide range of current thinking on seasonality under one cover. It provides a balanced overview of the evidence and issues relating to tourism seasonality using European, North American and Pacific Rim cases and research evidence. The chapters, from eminent academic authors, address tourism seasonality from the point of view of – its historical context; its impact on specific sectors - accommodation, family resorts and the perceived community benefits of seasonality.
