Contemporary Finance

“The field of finance has been changing rapidly over the last decade. Contemporary Finance by Allan M. Malz is the first comprehensive summary of the field to be up-to-date in 2025. Other books force you to choose between comprehensive classic texts missing the latest material, and specialized accounts of some aspects of finance. It blends academic theory with how finance is practiced at the most sophisticated global institutions. Exposition is clear and accessible to students with solid knowledge of college algebra and introductory statistics.” – Aaron Brown, creator of “Wrong Number!” video series, author of Red-Blooded Risk and former managing director and head of financial market research, AQR Capital Management
