This course focuses on fundamental concepts in investment and portfolio management: risk-return tradeoff, portfolio optimization, and diversification. The objective of the course is to develop a thorough understanding of the key principles of portfolio management and asset pricing theory and to learn how to apply them in practice. We also compare the European markets with the U.S. markets – are they just a copy or are there differences? By the end of this course you will be able to calculate the price for bonds and equities, calculate the risks on various instruments and asset portfolios, and evaluate the performance of an active portfolio management.
