Tuckman's book is a lucid introduction to Fixed Income securities. The book does not assume high mathematics knowledge, except for basic Algebra. Through the first few chapters Tuckman guides the reader through discount factors, spot rates, forward rates, Yield To maturity, duration and convexity; and with very good introductions to curve fitting, hedging and Term structure models. Part Three, in my opinion is the highlight of the book, which is a detailed exposition of Term structure models. If there are any weak- nesses in the book, I think they are in Mortgage Backed Securities (MBS). The treatment of MBS seems a little light. Also, the practice problems are fairly straightforward. But, the book is full of examples and practical case-studies. On the whole, this is a very good book, especially for those who are new to fixed-income securities. |

This book gives basics of fixed income securities in a very intuitive way. It first explains building blocks for fixed income securities. I have studied these topics in pricing and finance theory, and then I bought this book. I couldn't imagine a better explanation in such a clear way for fixed income securities. I suggest this book to everybody who wants to understand the fixed income securities. I think it helps anybody who is interested in quantitative modeling fixed income securities and who is interested in trading such securities.
It first gives the basic background, the relative pricing of fixed income securities and fixed cash flows. It then explains the price sensitivity and hedging. The author has given a good explanation for term structure models. The last part of the book is dedicated to some securities: repo, forward contracts, interest rate swaps, euro dollar and fed funds, fixed income options, mortgage-backed securities and note and bond futures. |
