This course introduces crucial concepts of investment decision-making, portfolio theory and
valuation models of financial assets, especially bonds and common stocks. Students will develop skills and learn tools to understand how financial markets value securities, building optimized portfolios, perform market research and security valuation, measure portfolio performance and manage a portfolio under risk budgets. After establishing foundations of the Modern Portfolio Theory, we will focus on its extensions and applications. The course objective is achieved through a combination of lectures, practical exercises, case studies and, finally, seminars by few practitioners.
