In \u003ci\u003eThe Future of Finance, \u003c\/i\u003e Moorad Choudhry and Gino Landuyt argue that banks must realign their business models, implying a lower return-on-equity; diversifying their funding sources; and increasing liquidity reserves. On the investment side, the authors discuss how diversification did not reduce risk, but rather amplified it, and failed to stabilize returns. The authors conclude that the clear lesson from the crisis is to know one's risk. A lesson that is best served by concentrating on assets and sectors that you understand.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eExamines the weaknesses in the business models of many institutions, as well as the theoretical foundation for professionals in the field of finance\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIdentifies the shortcomings of Modern Portfolio Theory\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAddresses how investment managers can find new strategies for creating \"alpha\" and why they need to re-vamp their fee structures\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eFilled with in-depth insights and practical advice, \u003ci\u003eThe Future of Finance\u003c\/i\u003e will provide bankers and investment managers with a guide to realigning their businesses in order to prosper in the post-crisis financial markets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFront Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFinancial markets have always promised, and often delivered, prosperity. But, during the last decade, the structure and behavior of financial markets themselves helped create the conditions for an economic implosion that resulted in a banking crisis, recession, and wholesale loss of investor confidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhile recent events have renewed calls on the need for a paradigm shift in both the investment and banking model, another clear lesson from the crisis is to \"know one's risk,\" and that is best served by appreciating fully the nature of the markets in which finance operates.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Future of Finance\u003c\/i\u003e looks beyond the headlines and media hype to present a full and accessible analysis of the factors leading to the crash of 2007 and the banking crisis of 2008, as well as the interaction between these factors.
