Book description
"There is a strong need for this book by Jeremy Bolland, which
dissects all issues relating to securities research. The requirement for
better research does not only apply to the US securities market but to
securities markets all over the world. This book is relevant in any
setting. It will equip analysts with many useful tools to help them
achieve success." -Mark Mobius, President, Templeton Emerging
Markets Fund
"Jeremy Bolland's book is essential reading for all people involved
in writing securities research. Moreover, it is not just a technical and
legal guide, but also a timely reminder of the principles of good
writing." -Andrew Leeming, Author of The Super Analysts
"Knowing your ratios and spreadsheets is no longer enough to become
an investment analyst. As Jeremy Bolland points out, you need to know
your do's and don'ts of how to approach clients and companies. This
guide to doing it properly is an obvious selection for the bookshelf of
anyone who aspires to offer investment advice and a fine reference for
anyone who receives such advice."-Jake van der Kamp, Financial
Columnist, South China Morning Post
"At last, here's a comprehensive yet easy-to-read guide explaining
all the best practice principles involved in writing securities
research. It is full of useful information. If all securities analysts
followed the guidance that has been clearly laid out in this book by
Jeremy Bolland, research enforcement regulators around the world would
be out of a job. Anyone who is involved in writing and publishing
research, or using research for investment decisions, from the novice to
the expert, should read this book. I highly recommend it."-Anthony
