The second edition of this concise and compact text recognises the significance of portfolio management as an essential skill rather than just a theoretical base for investors in today’s world. It is a comprehensive, well-organised text on various aspects of portfolio management such as analysis, selection, revision and evaluation of portfolios of securities for deriving maximum benefit from one’s investments.
The book also discusses in detail the basic methods of security analysis such as fundamental analysis and technical analysis, shares and bond valuation, efficient market theory, and the capital asset pricing model.
