Praise for Managing a Corporate Bond Portfolio
"Crabbe and Fabozzi's Managing a Corporate Bond Portfolio is a refreshingly good book on the neglected topic in fixed income portfolio management. If you want to understand the latest thinking in corporate bonds, what drives prices and why, read this book. You will emerge with knowledge that will help you get an edge in the competitive investing arena."
-Tim Opler
Director, Financial Strategy Group, CSFB
"A practitioner's guide . . . a creative, comprehensive, and practical book that addresses the myriad of challenges facing managers of corporate bond portfolios. The chapter on liquidity, trading, and trading costs is a must read."
-Mary Rooney
Head of Credit Strategy, Merrill Lynch
"As a Senior Portfolio Manager responsible for managing billions of dollars invested in fixed income product during the mid-1990s, Lee Crabbe was the one Wall Street strategist that I would read every week to help me figure out where value was in the corporate bond market, and for insightful and easy-to-understand special reports that educated me and most investors on the risks and opportunities inherent in new structures and subordinated products. Fortunately for me and investors, Lee Crabbe and Frank Fabozzi have written this book, which compiles much of their previous work on corporate bond valuation, along with new features that are a must read, especially in light of the volatile times in the corporate bond market over the past few years. For portfolio managers, analysts, traders, and even strategists, if there is one book in your bookshelf that you should have on corporate bond portfolio management, it is this one."

From the Inside Flap
Corporate bond portfolio management is a complicated process of balancing risk and expected returns. In managing this type of portfolio, you must account for a variety of factors that could impact the corporate bond market and, most importantly, the expected return of your portfolio. Managing a Corporate Bond Portfolio presents the essential elements of corporate bond portfolio management and provides you with state-of-the-art analytical tools to help enhance returns and control the risks associated with corporate bonds.
Fixed income security experts Leland Crabbe and Frank Fabozzi begin with an overview of corporate bond features, including the provisions contained in bond indentures, secured bonds and unsecured bonds, and interest payments. They also provide a solid foundation of the various corporate debt structures of corporate bonds.
Moving from introductory basics to the sophisticated analysis of returns and risk of corporate bonds, Managing a Corporate Bond Portfolio offers portfolio managers and investors the most professional advice, insights, strategies, and tools to maximize corporate bond portfolio returns while minimizing risk. An in-depth discussion of corporate bond valuation and price dynamics provides you with:
* A valuation framework, as well as various measures of corporate bond yields and spreads
* The most current measures of interest rate risk
* Useful formulas that reveal the relation between spreads and excess returns
* Strategies that can improve performance by anticipating changes in yield spreads and spread curves
* A thorough understanding of the fundamental factors that drive corporate spreads. . . and much more.
Managing a Corporate Bond Portfolio continues its comprehensive treatment of corporate bond portfolio management by discussing corporate credit risk issues such as the microfundamentals of credit risk and credit analysis; measuring expected excess returns based on credit rating transition probabilities; and valuing subordinated securities. Rounding out the topic of corporate bond portfolio management, Managing a Corporate Bond Portfolio presents an analytical framework for valuing embedded options, and explores redemption analysis through an examination of how option values are affected by credit risk, and the valuation of putable bonds and their use in portfolio strategies.
Corporate bond portfolio management is a dynamic process in which investors continually reevaluate which sectors of the market have the most attractive trade-off between risk and expected return. With Managing a Corporate Bond Portfolio you'll learn to combine the many aspects of this discipline to create a portfolio that will put you in the best possible position to enhance returns in the corporate bond sector.
