Provides a comprehensive introduction to financial management and financial analysis. Focus is on creating shareholder value. Topics include financial modelling, the time value of money, stock and bond valuation, capital budgeting and net present value, risk and diversification, and the Capital Asset Pricing Model.

This introductory course lays out the main foundations of financial management. We begin by developing a suite of tools for converting cash flows between present and future values, which is followed by applications to stock and bond valuation and mortgages, as well as applications to the evaluation of new projects in a corporate setting. Investment diversification and a range of asset pricing models that can be used to estimate investment returns conditional on risk are also investigated.

✔ After successfully completing this course you should be able to:

Value assets and assess proposed investments by converting cash flows between present and future values.
Value financial instruments such as stocks and bonds and understand the markets in which they trade.
Determine whether a proposed new project creates value for shareholders and justify your reasoning through the application of rigorous financial analysis.
Implement a range of asset pricing models in order to determine a fair return given the risk of a particular investment.
Assess the merits of a proposed new capital investment and prepare a detailed financial analysis and report.
Demonstrate basic proficiency in accessing data from Bloomberg.
