Summary

The text of choice for the College of Financial Planning, Mayo's INVESTMENTS: AN INTRODUCTION, 9e, places strong emphasis on the individual financial planner's perspective. Students discover how to use what they're learning to make real investment decisions with a fresh Financial Advisor's Investment Case that continues throughout every chapter.

The book's Thomson ONE?-Business School Edition provides access to the same financial analysis tool used on Wall Street. It's all part of a comprehensive package and engaging text that clarifies today's most important investment topics within a compelling, interactive learning environment to ensure comprehension.
