Praise for The CME Group Risk Management Handbook

"Wow! The CME Group Risk Management Handbook is a 'ten
strike' and long overdue. A must-read and reference for the risk
management industry!"

--Jack Sandner, retired chairman of CME Group, member
of the Executive Committee

"This is a powerful book for its integration of futures and
options markets with an understanding of the whole economy. It is
an eye-opener to see how central these markets are to our economic
lives."

--Robert J. Shiller, Okun Professor of Economics, Yale
University; Chief Economist, MacroMarkets LLC

"Risk management is essential to successful investing, and
The CME Group Risk Management Handbook provides the
essentials for understanding risk management. In the wake of the
financial turmoil of the last few years, managing risk should be
part of any investment program. Among the key elements of risk
management are stock index, bond, currency, and commodity futures
as well as a growing number of futures, options, swaps, and other
financial instruments built on indices tracking housing prices,
weather conditions, and the economy. The CME Group Risk
Management Handbook offers a comprehensive guide for using all
of these to better manage financial risks."

--David M. Blitzer, PhD, Managing Director and
Chairman of the Index Committee, S&P Indices

"Dare we ignore the advice of a financial institution, the
largest of its kind in the world, that navigated the recent
financial crisis without the aid of a single TARP dollar or access
to the Fed's cheap loans? For CME Group, risk management has meant
risk minimization as it enters its 151st year of life and its 85th
year of central counterparty clearing without a single trading debt
unpaid. It has been, and continues to be, a leader by
example."

--Philip McBride Johnson, former CFTC chairman

"For the first time, a comprehensive handbook outlining the
futures market in today's world is available. The CME Group Risk
Management Handbook covers futures basics for the novice
trader, while the veterans will benefit from an in-depth look at
options and hedging. This handbook is a necessity for any
professional, investor, or other market participant seeking to
manage risk in the perpetually changing futures market."

--H. Jack Bouroudjian, CEO, Index Futures Group
