This revised and expanded edition of the Dictionary for Business & Finance defines terms from every field of business, as well as economics, statistics, and management and many words and expressions from other fields which have been adopted for special use by the business community. In this new edition, John V. Terry has added more than two hundred terms that help define the rapidly changing global economy of the late 1990s—terms like “European Currency Unit,” “Datsu-sara,” and “Keiretsu.” Of particular value to the student and business person alike are appendices for ratios, equations, formulas, abbreviations, and general financial and investment information.

In a clear, easy-to-follow style, Dictionary for Business & Finance goes directly to the business usage of a word or term, making it unnecessary to wade through irrelevant definitions.
