The strength of finance is that it takes a very structured approach to decision-making, with two key building blocks underlying all decisions. In this course we will develop the second building block: risk and return. The main focus in this building block will be on individual/personal decisions because (a) we learn when we see value to us as individuals and (b) the beauty of finance is that the building blocks of finance are applicable to any decision, personal or corporate.

This course is the second in a sequence of four courses, followed by a Capstone Project that comprise a Specialization on Valuation & Investing. 

课程大纲

The course is comprised of four modules of content (videos, readings, and assignments) and a typical learner should be able to cover each module in about a week if she devotes 5-10 hours a week. Each module has a rigorous assignment and we provide one week of assimilation time and one week to attempt the final exam. The assimilation time helps learners think through what they have been exposed to and finish the assignments, which is the best preparation for the final exam.  

Module One:  Risk and return is best understood in a real context; we will therefore spend the first module on understanding the most common vehicle of investment: bonds.   

Module Two: The second module will be spent understanding the features and valuation of stocks.

Module Three:  We will then develop a theory of risk based on the intuitive concept of diversification. Since knowledge of Statistics is key to understanding risk, we will introduce some important concepts of applications.
    
Module Four: We will wrap up the course by introducing one of the most widely known models called CAPM (Capital Asset Pricing Model), which provides a simple and powerful relation between risk and return.
