Mathematician Guido Giese finds that analogies are some of the best tools to explain topics as complex as financial derivatives. In Untold Secrets of Structured Product Investing, Guido compares financial markets to mixology, revealing how structured products are analogous to cocktails, with special ingredients and outcomes that range from a slight euphoria (most enjoyable) to a regrettable hangover (which this book is meant to help investors avoid).
Guido studied physics and mathematics at Heidelberg University and earned a PhD in applied mathematics from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology. He has more than twenty years of experience in the financial sector as a quantitative researcher and has published numerous research articles in financial literature. Guido lives in London with his wife and children. In his spare time, he likes to play tennis.
