By foregoing current consumption and allocating an amount of money in investments, investors expect to get compensated in future, usually in the form of a larger amount of money, and therefore to enhance their future consumption possibilities.

We will learn to utilise the essential tools for making an investment decision and build the analytical skills to evaluate the performance of a specific investment.

Topics covered:

Portfolio management
Capital asset pricing model
Arbitrage pricing model
Efficient capital markets
Equity evaluation
