More than 5,000 terms related to stocks, bonds, mutual funds, banking, tax laws, and transactions in the various financial markets are presented alphabetically with descriptions. The new ninth edition has been updated to take account of new financial regulations and recent dramatic swings in equities, credit, and other financial developments. Readers will also find a list of financial abbreviations and acronyms, as well as illustrative diagrams and charts. Here’s a valuable, thorough dictionary for business students, financial professionals, or private investors. Review: Clear and Easy to Use - This is a great dictionary for anything touching finances, investments, trading etc. It is nicely laid out. The explanations are easy to comprehend. It's been a lifesaver to learn about the stock market, exchanges and many other details pertaining to the trade of finance. Review: MUST have as your career advances - If you’re like me and you didn’t go to college and major in finance or attend college at all, but have a licensed role in finance: you will need this desk resource. It’s very easy to follow, and I used it while studying for all 3 FINRA licenses that are required for my job. I also keep it handy, but sometimes you come across a finance term (or atleast I do) that you’ve never heard before and do em, I’d rather read a trusted resource than to find “info on the internet” something that may not be completely accurate.

A good reference book
The dictionary is really useful for a learner. Well organized, well binding. One star off, just because the letters are too small.

Use it (this book) or lose it (your cash)!
Whether it's a word or phrase you know, think you know, or you think you ought to know, you will find it or them here in this remarkable dictionary. In a world where knowing the correct term can make or lose your hard-earned cash, you will always have a "friend in the business" when you have this book close at hand.

This book is worth more than it costs to buy..!
If you want to comprehend money, finance, and banking, you NEED this. This book is worth more than it’s costs to buy..! Thankfully it’s inexpensive. You’d be surprised at how little it costs to make 10x more than you may currently be making. First, you need to educate yourself.

Excellent source to understand and learn terms
A great reference source and good for students. Only negative I have is the pages tend to fall out with use. I had to replace mine in six months.

Dictionary of Financial Terms
Already had an earlier version. Purchased as a gift. Very good reference manual for any person who wants to know the meaning of financial terms. Very comprehensive. Many of the listings will not be found elsewhere.
