The first three topics - unconventional monetary policy, implicit bank guarantees and financial fraud - are in various ways associated with rethinks stimulated by the exceptional event of the Global Financial Crisis. The next six surveys are topics where the passage of time has allowed new insights. Recent studies on inflation risk premia and finance and productivity have benefitted from new empirical methods and the availability of relevant data. The topics of angel investing, venture capital, relationship lending and microfinance have benefitted from increased research as they have become more seasoned. The final two topics of crowdfunding and crypto-currencies have arisen from recent technological developments. This collection of surveys will be of interest to academics, governments and policy makers, financial analysts, and anyone interested in critical insights into developments in finance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiley-Blackwell","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47988984119525,"sku":"NP9781119565161","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9781119565161.jpg?v=1761782312","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/contemporary-topics-in-finance-isbn-9781119565161","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
