FN 663 Global Investments
This course describes the various theories of investments, the limitations of those theories, and the various types of investments available to individual and institutional investors globally, together with their potential returns and risks. The range of alternative investments is covered as well as newer ways of trading securities (e.g., high frequency trading, front running, and dark pools). Students are also required to establish and track three separate portfolios and write a research paper on an ethical aspect of the securities market.
