I hope mine will be helpful to you<>

Hello, go buy a set of books for the ** qualification exam.

If you want to enter the bank, you can learn this aspect of credit, including some basic knowledge, such as accounting.

The books mentioned upstairs are still good, but for a non-finance student, it is a bit too time-consuming and laborious for a non-finance student to learn about finance by reading them in turn. Many parts of these books are introduced repeatedly, and if you study on your own, it is not easy to grasp the key points when reading books without guidance.

If your school offers a major in finance, you might as well follow their major to listen to professional classes, which will be faster.

If you must read books on your own, I recommend starting with Zvi Bodi's Finance. This book can be regarded as an introductory textbook in finance, it is very detailed but not redundant, and there are many examples and it is easy to understand. It's good to first go through this book to build a general idea of finance.

If "Finance" is not enough for you, then you can choose to read Ross's "Corporate Finance" and Bodie's "Investment", the difficulty of these two books is slightly higher than that of "Finance", and it will be better to read it again with a certain foundation, and you can understand finance more deeply from the perspective of the supply side and the demand side of funds. Further on, it's about direction, because there are many branches in the financial system, and with a general framework, you should focus more on the branches that you are interested in. That's the next thing to compare.

If you are interested, you are welcome to ask questions.

Western Economics (Macro and Micro), International Finance, Financial Markets, Money and Banking, Investment, etc., these are the basic parts of the professional subjects of finance, but in the absence of a foundation, let's take a good look at the Western Longitude

Let's look at macroeconomics first, this one is a little simpler, my girlfriend studied economics, and they are like that.

Ten financial copy classic introductory books are recommended to the subject, I hope to help you!

Mankun du "Principles of Economics".

Frederick SMishkin, "DAO Monetary Finance".

Frank JFabozi, "Financial Markets and the Foundations of Financial Institutions".

Ziwei. Bodi, "Investment".

Stephen ARoss, Corporate Finance

Paul. Krugman, International Economics

John CHull, Options** and Other Derivatives

Frank JFabaoz, Bond Markets: Analysis and Strategy

Frank K. Reilly, Investment Analysis and Portfolio Management (8th Edition) (Volume I & II) William. Forbes Behavioral Finance

1) Jeremy Siegel: "The Magic Weapon of the Long Term".

The peculiarity of this book is that it is written in a very easy way to understand. Readers don't need much financial expertise to easily understand the content of the book. Second, the book includes a very long history of financial data, dating back more than 200 years.

After its publication, the book was so popular with American readers that it was reprinted several times.

The disadvantage of the book is that it focuses on the history of the US market (with some historical analysis of other European countries added later) and does not have a specific analysis of China's financial markets.

2) Frank Fabozi: The Fixed Income Handbook

The advantage of the book is that it is very detailed and covers a very wide range. Especially for the valuation part of fixed income **, the book explains the entire logical chain very clearly from theory to practice. The disadvantage of this book is that it has a certain professional threshold, which is not suitable for investment novices who are not financial majors.

3) David Svensson: "Unconventional Success."

David Svensson has published a limited number of books, but each one is a classic and definitely worth reading.

This "Unconventional Success" is specially aimed at the majority of ** individual investors, which contains a lot of investment wisdom and is worthy of our serious study.

4) Peter Bernstein: "Enemy of Heaven".

The book "Enemy of Heaven" lists a lot of very interesting financial historical facts. The history of finance, in fact, can also be called the "history of human nature".

By looking back at these financial events (such as the tulip mania, the South China Sea bubble, etc.), you will find that although the world has changed a lot over the centuries, human nature has not changed much. In the face of high returns, there is no end to our greed. And in times of market crisis, fear deprives us of our most basic judgment.

Only by understanding human nature can we have a deeper understanding of the market.

5) William Bernstein: Effective Asset Management

William Bernstein was a prolific writer. In the field of asset allocation, this book "Effective Asset Management" is well worth reading.

I had a very interesting debate with Bernstein on active and passive investing, as well as some other investment topics, and if you are interested, you can listen to the recording of the debate.

6) Dan Morgan: Merchants of Grain

If you are still in English, you may want to consider reading the English version of the book. The characteristics of the book are that it is written more vividly and interestingly, and the words are simple, and it is estimated that it can be understood after the fourth level of college. After reading this book, you will have a deeper understanding of the world's commodities** (agricultural products).

7) John Bogle: "Common Sense".

John Bogle is not the richest manager in the world, but he may well be one of the greatest managers in the world. John Bogle changed Wall Street, changed the management industry, and changed the fate of hundreds of millions of investors.

1. Huang Da's "Finance" (Chinese Renmin University Press) and Hu Qingkang's "Modern Money and Banking Course" (Fudan University Press), these two books can mainly understand money and banking;

2. Jiang Boke's "New Edition of International Finance" (Fudan University Press) can have an understanding of exchange rates and international financial markets.

3. Zhang Yichun's "Financial Markets", Higher Education Press, can have a more comprehensive understanding of financial derivatives such as **, options, and **.

The above three are professional books on finance, but they are not very difficult. If you want to understand it from scratch, you can read Mankiw's "Microeconomics" first, which is easier to understand. A little deeper is Gao Hongye's "Western Economics", including macro and micro parts, which is the basic discipline of economics, not only finance, but also economics-related majors.

In fact, you already know it yourself, but you lack of sorting, what others say may not be suitable for you, it's like choosing a girlfriend, you have to learn it yourself, no matter how good it is, you can't learn it if you are not interested.

1.Learn financial knowledge for your own investment: Many people now know the importance of financial management, but lack the ability to do it well.

If you really want to do a good job in financial management or investment, you must first be able to understand the economic development status and trend of the country and the industry, secondly, you must be able to understand the internal economic logic of investment varieties, and finally you must have the ability to analyze investment targets. Mastering this knowledge is not only convenient for good investment, but also can distinguish which are the best financial products and which are real financial products. Because when it comes to investment, safety comes first.

To master this kind of knowledge, you can find some well-known textbook books, such as "Principles of Economics" Mankiw Edition, "Investment", "Monetary Finance" Mishkin Edition, etc., and you can also read non-textbook books by university scholars, such as Lin Yifu's "Interpreting China's Economy", Tang Ya's "Money Never Sleeps", Chen Zhiwu's "The Logic of Finance" and so on.

2.Learning financial knowledge because of personal interest: I hope to understand financial knowledge, understand the concept of financial terms, understand financial news, and communicate with others.

This learning purpose is easier to learn, you don't need to read textbook books, you can read some books with similar titles such as: Illustrated Finance, a book to understand finance, etc.

3.If you want to enter the financial industry, the learning requirements will be relatively high, the first is to need systematic financial knowledge, and the second is to think clearly about what position in which specific industry. Because insurance, banking, trust, and trust are all financial industries, these different sub-industries have different requirements for knowledge.

It is recommended to build your own knowledge system based on the job requirements. You can refer to the textbooks of finance majors for study books, so I won't repeat them here.
