Topics include criteria for making investment decisions, valuation of financial assets and liabilities, relationships between risk and return, capital structure choice, payout policy, the use and valuation of derivative securities (e.g., options and convertible securities), and risk management. This advanced course is targeted to those with a strong background in finance and solid quantitative skills.

FINANCE 224: Finance-C
The focus of this course is the decision-making process of the corporate manager responsible for major financial decisions. Starting from theoretical foundations, we will analyze cases covering a wide range of topics such as capital structure, dividend policy, financial distress, private equity and venture capital, mergers/acquisitions, hostile takeovers and leveraged buyouts. These cases provide an opportunity to apply the newly acquired theoretical models and tools to real-life situations. Students are expected to develop their own spreadsheets and provide recommendations that serve to maximize shareholder value. An accelerated version of this course is offered as

FINANCE 225: Finance-M
Most financial transactions of firms are market-based transactions where the firm interacts with investors in financial markets. The aim of this course is to provide you with an understanding of the workings of financial markets. We will build on the basic concepts you learned in Managerial Finance to explore how investors make decisions about risk and return, how financial markets reach equilibrium, how market imperfections create challenges for investors and corporations, how financial innovations can be used to address some of these challenges, and how failed financial innovation can sometimes create new challenges. nnnWe use cases to develop these topics in the context of concrete practical decision-problems, such as asset allocation of a large endowment fund, fund management during financial crises, raising of outside capital, or the design of a risk management strategy using financial derivatives.
