Book description
Investors who've primarily purchased equity securities in the past have
been looking for more secure investment alternatives; namely, fixed
income securities. This book demystifies the sometimes daunting fixed
income market, through a user-friendly, sophisticated, yet not overly
mathematical format.
Investing in Fixed Income Securities
covers a wide range of topics, including the different types of fixed
income securities, their characteristics, the strategies necessary to
manage a diversified portfolio, bond pricing concepts, and more, so you
can make the most informed investment decisions possible. Gary
Strumeyer is the Managing Director of the Bond and Money Market Group at
BNY Capital Markets, Inc., a registered broker-dealer subsidiary of The
Bank of New York Company, Inc., and has been with the company for twenty
years. He is a former adjunct professor of economics and finance at New
York University's School of Continuing and Professional Studies.
Strumeyer is the author of Keys to Investing in Municipal Bonds,
published by Barron's in 1996. He recently served on the NASD's
Corporate Debt Market Panel. The panel's purpose was to review and make
recommendations to the NASD Board of Governors regarding how to best
insure market integrity and investor protection in the corporate bond
market.
