https://at-ceu.studyguide.timeedit.net/modules/ECBS5181?type=COREThis course introduces students to econometric methods useful for those aiming to work in finance. Specifically, we will learn methods of predicting returns and volatility of financial assets, and for computing the level of risk that an investor faces in her portfolio. The first half of each class is a lecture on theory, practice, and R code. Students spend the second half applying the lecture to complete a short assignment on R, typically using real-world data.
