Advanced Finance - AFIN341

The world of finance is ever changing. Theories which were popular only ten years ago can suddenly be outdated and irrelevant. Events which were viewed as highly unlikely or totally unexpected can change the way governments and regulators respond to financial innovation. The relationship between finance and the environment can be viewed as a two-way process. Sometimes a change in the environment leads to innovations in finance, whereas at other times an innovation in finance leads to a change in government policy or regulation. In this unit students will be exposed to the latest thinking in various areas of finance, with an emphasis on the way academics and practitioners grapple with the interaction between changes in finance and changes in the financial environment.
