Synopsis:

The aim of the course is a deeper understanding of the more complex financial management issues. It builds on knowledge of standard financial management courses. The main topics are alternative capital market models, other investment valuation methods (generalized NPV method, general IRR method). The student will learn how to protect against risk using derivatives, evaluating exotic derivatives. In addition, students will assess using the Monte Carlo method the value of derivatives and financial instruments for which the so-called closed formulas are not available. Other modern finance issues will be addressed through case studies. An integral part is the question of numerical methods, their reliability and their practical use. Students create their own models and simulations based on the chosen topic. The output will be a comparative analysis of the proposed methods and standard methods. The wide use of computational tools and models (Matlab, Mathematica, others) is assumed.
