Personal Investment in an Uncertain Worldaims to provide a sound introduction to personal financial investment. It considers the co-evolution of financial products, markets, regulation and socio-economic change. The challenge for individual investors is how best to negotiate this difficult and shifting terrain over a lifetime of varying choices and responsibilities. The purpose of the book is two-fold: to endow the reader with a fundamental knowledge of financial markets; and to equip them with the skills necessary for achieving their financial goals through investments.
