I have, however, scanned Peter H\u00f6rdahl&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bis.org\/publ\/qtrpdf\/r_qt0809e.pdf\">The inflation risk premium in the term structure of interest rates<\/a>, as well as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bis.org\/publ\/qtrpdf\/r_qt0809h.pdf\">The ABX: how do the markets price subprime mortgage risk?<\/a> by Ingo Fender and Martin Scheicher. Good stuff &#8211; I might have time to review them thoroughly next week &#8211; I might not &#8211; read it yourselves!<\/p>\n<p>Other features, of less personal interest to me are<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bis.org\/publ\/qtrpdf\/r_qt0809f.pdf\">The development of money markets in Asia<\/a>, Mico Loretan &#038; Philip Wooldridge\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bis.org\/publ\/qtrpdf\/r_qt0809g.pdf\">Reducing foreign exchange settlement risk<\/a>, Robert Lindley<\/ul>\n<p>as well as a review of international banking and financial market developments. In general terms, I heartily recommend reading these reports by international bodies because, unlike absolutely everybody else who will attempt to explain the financial world, these people are not trying to sell you anything &#8211; not even a copy of the daily newspaper. What bias they do have is limited to the occasional &#8220;regulation = good&#8221; reference.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Bank for International Settlements has released its September 2008 Quarterly Review, filled, as usual, with many fascinating graphs, analysis and informational tidbits.
