Anotace:

In this course, you will explore the world of global finance and extend the principles of finance to an international setting. Throughout the course, the emphasis will be on dealing with exchange risk and market imperfections using various instruments and techniques available while maximizing the benefits from the expanded global opportunity set. Students will develop an understanding of key topics such as corporate governance around the world, foreign exchange markets, determination and forecasting of exchange rates, foreign exchange risk management, and international direct and portfolio investments.

Our primary focus is to understand how theoretical concepts translate into real-world applications. To bridge the gap between theory and practice, students will engage in comprehensive research and analysis of a country and its economy throughout the semester in teams. As we cover various topics in class, you will research how those topics apply to your country and collaborate on presentations that showcase your findings to the class. We will also discuss recent developments in the global financial markets and analyze up-to-date international economic and financial data.
