Security Analysis Portfolio Management
About the Title:Security Analysis and Portfolio Management, 6e is a classical text about investing in securities. It is aimed at providing a comprehensive introduction to the areas of security analysis and portfolio management. The text emphasizes the "how-to" aspects of the subject by using detailed real-world examples throughout. An attempt has been made to make the
text as nonmathematical as possible. Only simple algebra and some elementary statistics are used in the book.
The present adaptation ensures that the Indian readers are easily able to relate to examples from the Indian securities market. In the process, some of the chapters have been rearranged and enhanced to bring the discussion in line with contemporary presentation of security risks and returns.
