International Finance

The sixth edition of Maurice D. Levi's classic textbook continues to offer the most authoritative survey of international finance currently available. Key features of the book include:

• Assesses the impact of globalization and the greater connectedness of national economies and the world economy as a whole.
• Its introduction to exchange rates is probably the best that is currently available, discussing how they directly impact upon firms as well as governments.
• Comprehensive assessment of the continued massive impact of multinational corporations on the global financial scene as well as the opportunities presented by e-commerce.
• Strong coverage of emerging markets, particularly the rise to financial prominence of China and India and other growth economies in Asia and elsewhere.

Whilst updating the reader on all key developments in international finance, such as the Eurozone crisis and the manipulation of LIBOR rates, the book also includes a wealth of supplementary material including real world case studies, review questions, examples and objectives. This pedagogical material has been increased for the new edition, which will also offer for the first time comprehensive supporting web materials including both student and instructor resources.

Thoroughly updated and with a large amount of new information, this text will prove an indispensable guide to the inner workings of international finance to students of economics and business as well as professionals in the finance industry.

Maurice D. Levi is Bank of Montreal Professor of International Finance in the Sauder School of Business at the University of British Columbia, Canada.
