Praise for the Classic Guide to the Bond Market "This is simply
the most comprehensive, useful look-it-up book on municipal bonds Ive
ever read (said with all due respect to The ABC of Municipal Bonds my dad
wrote in 1937 when I was nine).
Read Fundamentals cover to cover. Im
keeping mine in my briefcase, under my arm, at my fingertips. No
accountant, financial advisor, attorney, new bond salesman, reporter,
regulator, test-writer, cautious, suspicious first-time investor in
municipal bonds, or dinner guest is ever going to catch me again with a
question about municipal bonds I cant answer."Jim
Lebenthal, Chairman, Lebenthal & Co. "Judy Wesalo Temel
gives us the Rosetta stone of the municipal bond market, the key to
unraveling the many mysteries of munis. Her book, a
fresh take on the old standard Fundamentals of Municipal Bonds, updates
chapter and verse on everything from investing to underwriting, from
over-the-counter to over-the-Internet.
The style is clean, crisp, and as
simple as this complex subject can be. Are you a novice who wonders how to
invest in bonds?
She lays out the basics. Examples are easy to
followeven the mathematical ones that are critical to explaining how
municipal bonds work.
At the same time, there is plenty of meat for the
pros. Whether you need to start from square one and learn all about
municipal bonds and how they work, or need a ready reference for specific
technical questions you run across as a market professional, this book is
for you."Kathleen Hays, Economics Editor, Credit Markets
Reporter, and "Bond Belle" CNBC "This is a
must-read for every scholar, banker, and public official concerned with
local government finance in the United States.
Judy Wesalo Temel has done
the impossible: she has clearly and insightfully explained how we finance
the development of the nation's vital public infrastructure.
This is an
important book, one that will be required reading for professionals
responsible for planning, designing, and evaluating publicly financed
projectsthe health care, transportation, and educational facilities
that all citizens rely upon.
The bond market is an essential element in
the life of local and state government, and this book makes it
