recommend books for software developers about finance

Jan 22, 2006 0 Replies

Hi,



I am currently working as a software developer in the banking industry. At the moment we are trying to integrate a risk management tool and I am responsible for developing several helping-tools.



Unfortunately, I don't have a strong background about the financial stuff (in fact, I only had some lectures about finance, banking, optiones, etc. in university; but that's all), so currently I am searching for some literature about finance, banking, etc. focussing on risk management. Could you give me some recommendations on books about this theme, which can be understand by a software developer and starts with the basics (math, statistic, etc. is no problem for me, only the technical terms... e.g. what is a butterfly spread)?



Thanks for your help, Richard
