MGT947: Capital Markets
This course covers different topics that are all related to capital markets, and particularly to the financial crisis which began in 2007. The topics covered concern the design, pricing, and trading of repurchase agreements (repo), corporate bonds, credit derivatives, and structured products, such as asset-backed securities. Basic tools such as fixed income mathematics, binomial option pricing, and swaps are studied and used to address the security design, trading, and pricing questions.
