The goal of "Visualizing Financial Data" is to provide financial managers and analysts a guide to using visual methods to optimize communications, understanding, and disclosure of qualitative and quantitative data.The book is formatted to showcase a series of use cases across various financial management domains, each of which has unique reporting and regulatory requirements. These include: corporate finance, portfolio management; pension fund, mutual fund, and hedge fund management. This book aims to stimulate and push the boundaries of today's conventions for communicating financial data. The case examples demonstrate and contrast current approaches of communicating data--for example, traditional bar, line, and pie charts---against alternative visual methods. As a problem-solving book, the reader will be taken through a set of real-world scenarios and shown best practices for designing exemplary visualizations that support efficient, timely, and effective decision-making.The book's companion website will include all of the visualizations in the book, which readers can tailor to their own uses; plus underlying data sets used to generate the visualizations, where appropriate, and links to related resources and visualization tools.
