Outline (in English)

In this course, students review the materials taught in Introduction to Finance and learn more advanced topics about bonds and stocks than taught in Introduction to Finance. For example, students study how a bond price changes relative to a small change in market interest rates, which is measured by what is called duration. Or students study financial ratios used by many practitioners as applied to companies whose stocks are traded on exchanges. Furthermore, students study bond and stock markets in foreign countries.

In general, prices of bonds and stocks change widely as new information about the companies or institutions that have issued those bonds and stocks enters into the market. A hypothesis called efficient market hypothesis claims that information will be incorporated into the prices of bonds and stocks immediately and correctly. The efficient market hypothesis is the last topic covered in this course.
