Inhalt: The course provides a practical introduction to computational methods used in Finance. We will discuss models of capital market theory, asset pricing, and risk management in light of efficient numerical analysis. Topics of the course include methods to efficiently solve systems of linear equations, as well as linear programming, and convex optimization. Application examples include portfolio theory, portfolio optimization, and modelling of dependency structures with a brief theoretical background. Hence, the course bridges the gap between financial theory and computational practice.

wöchentlich | Donnerstag | 10:15 - 11:45 | 12.10.2015 - 29.01.2016 | C 5.310 Seminarraum

Inhalt: This course is about the analysis of financial information arising primarily from the financial reports of entities. Fundamental analysis techniques are examined in detail with particular emphasis on the application of these techniques in equity (share) valuation decisions. The course comprises three related parts. Part one outlines the four basic steps in the fundamental analysis framework: business analysis, accounting analysis, financial analysis and prospective analysis. The next part combines these skills in addressing the question of valuation, while the final section of the course applies the skills in several different contexts, such as credit analysis, security analysis, mergers and acquisitions and financial policy decisions.
