FIN 394 - Investment Theory (HMBA)
The focus of this course
is on the examination and valuation of the major investment vehicles and
strategies popular today. In particular,
we will consider how investors allocate their financial assets by forming,
managing, and evaluating portfolios containing instruments such as stocks,
bonds, futures and option contracts, and mutual funds. Although the ultimate
objective will be to develop a conceptual and theoretical background upon which
the student can expand his or her knowledge of the field of investments, the
topical treatment will be rather practically oriented. This course will follow the general approach
used in the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) candidate training program. No
prior investment experience beyond successful completion of the prerequisite
course material covered in the core classes is assumed.
