Assessment and permitted materials
COURSE FORMAT:
The course will be based on students’ presentations, term papers, written peer feedback and in class discussions. The course focuses on seminal papers in different areas of Corporate Finance, but is far from being exhaustive and has a bias towards more contemporary empirical work. Students may propose other topics within the realm of corporate finance or banking.
A kick-off meeting is held in March in order to allocate topics. The course is held in English.
