Who This Author Is

Frank J. Fabozzi writes for practitioners who model, price, and hedge interest-rate products. His books Measuring and Controlling Interest Rate Risk and Valuation of Fixed Income Securities and Derivatives focus on quantitative frameworks, risk measures, and practical techniques for managing duration, convexity, and rate-exposure in bonds, swaps, and other fixed-income instruments.

Fabozzi’s clear exposition connects theory to trading-room tasks: yield curve construction, interest-rate sensitivity analysis, and derivative valuation. Expect worked examples and implementation-minded guidance designed to help portfolio managers, risk analysts, and students apply valuation models and control interest-rate risk in real-world fixed-income portfolios.
