Description: This is a book
about traders in financial markets: what they do, the kind of people they are,
how they perceive the world they inhabit, how they make decisions and take
risks. This is also a book about how traders are managed-the best and the worst
examples-and about the institutions they inhabit: firms, markets, cultures, and
theories of how the world works. How these institutions function, how traders
are managed, and how traders view the world, all have profound effects on the
wider financial environment.
This book
explores these relationships and their implications theoretically and
empirically. The data discussed in this book draw on a three-year project
researching the psychological and social influences on the behavior and
performance of traders in investment banks. 118 traders and managers in four
leading organizations participated. Data were collected through semi-structured
interviews supplemented by questionnaires, measures of personality, risk
propensity and a novel computer based measure designed to assess illusion of
control and other cognitive biases.
