Baffled by bonds... flummoxed by funds... terrified by tax???
18 May 04

No need to be bamboozled any longer by a flurry of information, data, facts and comments, impenetrable waves of jargon, and the complexities of the financial markets.

The Financial Times Guide to Investing will introduce readers to the complex art of investing, and how to invest successfully, whether they are actively involved in investing or thinking about it. In addition to providing a simple guide to understanding how financial markets operate, it will allow you to follow and act on your own judgements based on case studies and worked examples, giving you, the reader, the chance to experiment successfully with shares, bonds, funds and derivatives.

The book is written in a clear and uncluttered manner taking many examples and case studies from the FT.

Covering everything from investment basics to liquidity risk and venture capital trusts - this book not only explains in simple terms the process and technicalities of investment in shares, but also introduces the reader to a number of related issues from investment styles to the impact of mergers and takeovers.

Can your investment portfolio survive without it?
