Book Description
El matemático de origen polaco Benoît Mandelbrot es considerado como el «padre de la geometría fractal». Los fractales –estructuras geométricas de diversos niveles de tamaño, cada una de los cuales repite a pequeña escala la estructura total– son idóneos para mensurar la rugosidad de la Naturaleza y nos permiten acercarnos geométricamente a estructuras tan poco euclideanas –en realidad, tan barrocas– como una nube, el contorno de la costa, los meandros de un río, las ráfagas de viento, un pedazo de coliflor... y, al parecer, una jornada en la Bolsa. En efecto, en este libro, accesible a lectores no especializados, pero que fascinará tanto a expertos financieros como a matemáticos, sus autores muestran cómo aplicar los fractales al comportamiento de los mercados bursátiles. Fenómenos como las caídas y los repuntes bruscos de los índices o las llamadas «burbujas financieras» no siempre resultan explicables a partir de los análisis económicos clásicos. En cambio, las «finanzas fractales» permiten reducir a una idea matemática sencilla procesos tan complejos como la variación de los precios o la convertibilidad de una moneda en otra.

Financialisation in Latin America
Author: Noemi Levy
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0429874413
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 436
Book Description
Financial capital continues to dominate Western economic organisations, despite major financial and economic crises. While these have not affected Latin American countries in the same way, other economic problems emerged after the reversion of loose monetary policies that debilitated the export-led growth model. This book discusses the issue of the financialised globalisation model in Latin America, looking at the region’s relationship with the international market. This edited collection is divided into three main sections. The first section discusses regional trends highlighting issues of trade and payments in financialised economies, the impact on deindustrialisation, its effect on inequality, external capital movements and monetary policies. The second section analyses the failure of comparative advantages of the export-led model in Colombia, Argentina and Mexico. Finally, the last section deals with the growth of financial balance sheets in small and developing economies such as Chile; how growth, investment and big corporation evolution were affected in Brazil and Mexico; and the effects of foreign exchange activity in Mexico. Through these discussions, this book aims to deepen the understanding of the crisis of financialisation and the export-led model, raising the question of whether it is possible for this model to continue or if it requires major readjustments to unfold economic growth. This book provides a distinctive analysis of the financialisation mechanisms in developing countries in order to emphasise affinities and differences between the countries of the region in productive and financial terms. It will be of great interest to economic and social science scholars and students, to journalists specialising on economic and development issues, and, more importantly, to policy makers.

Inventing the Future in an Age of Contingency
Author: André Folloni
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1443892599
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 230
Book Description
In a world where communication and language are not as divisive as they once were, we are experiencing a convergence unlike any other. Through technology and a broadening of our cultural understanding, we are opening doors and closing communication borders. While it is easier to adapt to and enter each other’s worlds, still we must navigate complex systems to understand operations within groups and organisations. Our experiences allow us more acceptance, but education is the only door to full comprehension. The chapters in this volume challenge readers to explore complexity theory and offer elements that support the continued and ever-growing need for its use. The book explores technology, culture, and science to navigate systems within organisations, in order to divulge the broad spectrum in which complexity theory may be utilised.

The (Mis)Behaviour of Markets
Author: Benoit B. Mandelbrot
Publisher: Profile Books
ISBN: 1847651550
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
This international bestseller, which foreshadowed a market crash, explains why it could happen again if we don't act now. Fractal geometry is the mathematics of roughness: how to reduce the outline of a jagged leaf or static in a computer connection to a few simple mathematical properties. With his fractal tools, Mandelbrot has got to the bottom of how financial markets really work. He finds they have a shifting sense of time and wild behaviour that makes them volatile, dangerous - and beautiful. In his models, the complex gyrations of the FTSE 100 and exchange rates can be reduced to straightforward formulae that yield a much more accurate description of the risks involved.
