Since the publication of the first edition of this dictionary (1979), the world of finance has undergone many profound changes. The compilers of this second edition have taken account of these developments by eliminating outdated entries, by including about 450 new ones and by updating and thoroughly revising all other entries. This dictionary thus fully reflects the terminology currently in use in the world of finance. It has easy multilingual cross-referencing via indexes, is user-friendly, and presents an exhaustive combination of a dictionary with a thesaurus. It is descriptive, rather than prescriptive, and thus records all the terms actually in use to express particular concepts, leaving the choice of the most appropriate equivalent, which obviously depends on the context, to the user.
