Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
The objective of this course is to undertake a rigorous study of the theory and empirical evidence relevant to investment management. The course will introduce you to the characteristics of various financial securities and discuss the risks and rewards associated with them. Topics covered include optimal portfolio selection and asset allocation, the theory of asset pricing models, market efficiency, behavioral finance, the mutual fund and hedge fund industry, as well as techniques for evaluating investment management performance. Much of the course is devoted to common stocks, but other investments, especially fixed-income securities and derivatives, will be included. The course does not cover individual security selection and valuation.For more information, please refer to the course syllabus at https://drive.google.com/file/d/16s7FkCvixkS33MU8LKz-t8ggqP3mHPV2/view?usp=sharing.
