Dawn of Behavioural Finance, 1688

The role of psychology in investment decisions has been amply debated during the past few decades, following the evolution of behavioural finance. This book shows that, although behavioural finance concepts were coined/systemised since the 1980s, their first traces are identified in Joseph de la Vega’s Confusion of Confusions, written in 1688, over 300 years ago. To that end, the book provides the first comprehensive assessment of Confusion of Confusions from the perspective of the behavioural finance paradigm. Offering also a detailed discussion of behavioural finance itself and the historical context of Vega and his time, it demonstrates that Confusion of Confusions constitutes the precursor to behavioural finance. This book should be of interest to finance researchers and students, particularly those focusing on behavioural finance and financial history. The book’s educational value for investors further renders it relevant to regulators and policy makers, who can consider including it in financial education curricula.

Die Zulässigkeit derivativer Finanzinstrumente in Unternehmen, Banken und Kommunen

  • Categories: Law

English summary: It is impossible to imagine modern companies without derivative financial instruments. Christian Kohler shows which types of financial derivatives are no longer suitable for corporate financing. This will have consequences for the decision-makers in the company and is extremely relevant to the organization of a future financial system. German description: Nicht erst die Ereignisse der vergangenen Jahre an den Finanzmarkten werfen die Frage auf, wie die Finanz- und Industrieunternehmen, aber auch Kommunen derivative Finanzinstrumente richtig einsetzen. Christian Kohler geht dieser Frage nach und gibt Entscheidungstragern konkrete Handlungsempfehlungen an die Hand. Zugleich zeigt er erstmals, welche Arten derivativer Finanzinstrumente sich fur den Einsatz in der Unternehmung nicht mehr eignen. Dies ist nicht nur fur die Entscheidungstrager der Unternehmen selbst von Bedeutung, sondern zugleich ausserst relevant fur die Ausgestaltung eines kunftigen Finanzsystems.
