Treasury finance and development banking : a guide to credit, debt, and risk

Before the credit crisis, credit was primarily considered only when dealing with counterparty credit risk, high-yield debt, or credit-linked derivatives. Credit and credit risk now permeate every corner of the financial world. This book analyzes credit from the beginning--the point at which a borrowing entity decides to raise capital through its treasury operation. The author delves into the crucial functions that treasury funding plays in the operations of financial institutions, governments, and corporations.
