Review: X - X Review: Very low quality paper compared to 2nd edition - Review is based purely on the quality of the paper used, and not the Risk content. 2nd edition paper quality was very good - sharper text, brighter and sturdier paper I'm more reliant on a digital copy I have access to via the PRMIA website.

Very low quality paper compared to 2nd edition
Review is based purely on the quality of the paper used, and not the Risk content. 2nd edition paper quality was very good - sharper text, brighter and sturdier paper I'm more reliant on a digital copy I have access to via the PRMIA website.

Unless you want a deep dive into RM for banks and hedging currency risk, this book is not for you.
This book is almost solely geared toward towards quant finance and banking. It is also very academic. I'm sure the book is fine, but in reading the description it gave the impression that "essentials" was geared toward a practical understanding and outline of RM practices and procedures and this book is not that at all.
