In this course, students will be introduced to portfolio structure and management. This course utilizes theories of portfolio management, such as Modern Portfolio Theory, to develop, measure and manage several types of investment portfolios. Students will measure, analyze, and evaluate equity and fixed-income portfolios consistent with risk-return relationships. Furthermore, students will utilize derivatives for proper risk management to mitigate adverse movements in the markets. Finally, students will apply these concepts to the Student Managed Investment Fund for proposals for proper asset allocation given current and future macro- and micro-economic developments.
