Unlike others, Fischer and Wermers teach readers how to pick the theories and applications that fit their specific needs.  With material inspired by the recent financial crisis, Fischer and Wermers bring new clarity to defining investment success. 

Gives readers the theories and the empirical tools to handle their own data Features practice problems from the CFA Program curriculum.
