Editorial Reviews:
Product Description There has been an explosive growth in the number of corporates, investors and financial institutions turning to structured products to achieve cost savings, risk controls and yield enhancements. However, the exact nature, risks and applications of these products and solutions can be complex, and problems arise if the fundamental building blocks and principles are not fully understood. This book explains the most popular products and strategies with a focus on everything beyond vanilla options, dealing with these products in a literate yet accessible manner, giving practical applications and case studies. A special emphasis on how the client uses the products, with interviews and descriptions of real-life deals means that it will be possible to see how the products are applied in day-to-day situations – the theory is translated into practice. Note: CD-ROM/DVD and other supplementary materials are not included as part of eBook file.

Customer Reviews: Fantastic book December 18, 2007 Marpa (NY) 3 out of 8 found this review helpful
This is probably the book to read if you are on the FX trading floor. Uwe has done an excellent job of demystifying things. It is a must read for an FX structurer.
Can be better April 22, 2010 SP5000 This is not a book on FX option pricing. Explanation and case study on structured products are too simplied, though you can see a lot of structured product names listed on the content table.
Chapter 5 is more like FX pricing/trading system commercials. The merit of Chapter 4 is questionable.
Maybe it's a good reference to check equations for all kind of greeks.
