Examine the globalization of today's financial markets and explore how central banks have changed monetary policy because of the Great Recession. Study how technology is disrupting financial markets and join the debate over who protects consumers in financial markets. While other money and banking texts focus on memorizing equations; moving lines on graphs; or reading long, dry chapters, Brandl's MONEY, BANKING, FINANCIAL MARKETS AND INSTITUTIONS, 2E brings important financial concepts to life in a clear, concise, reader-oriented approach.

  • Approachable, reader-oriented writing style encourages student-centered learning.
  • Extensive description of cryptocurrencies examines positives and negatives.
  • Entirely new section more closely examines the tech bubble and subprime crisis in a historical context.
  • New section on modern business cycle models.
  • Every section ends with Section Review questions to make sure students understand the concepts before moving on. There are two short-answer questions and one multiple-choice question.
  • Throughout the chapters are “Tying Concepts Together” boxes that help bring together various concepts in the chapter as well as from other chapters.
  • IN THE NEWS. At the end of every chapter is an article from the current news that brings the concepts to life for the student. Also included are questions to spark discussion and debate.
