Investments

This is an introductory but demanding course in investments. This course endeavours to provide the
basic understanding and tools to conduct portfolio analysis, make investment decisions, and
manage portfolios. By the end of this course, students should have a broad understanding of
investments and portfolio management. This course covers the analysis of various investment
vehicles, allocation of assets, and modern portfolio theory. Students will learn valuation, portfolio
construction and evaluation techniques, and apply investment techniques using Excel.
Students are expected to review Financial Management. To maximize acquisition of new knowledge,
the instructors will not cover overlapping topics with Financial Management, but these topics
remain examinable.
