About the Course

In this course, you will dive into the concepts of rationality and irrationality and understand how they impact our investment decisions and what the consequences can be at the market level. You will first explore the different biases that we, as humans, are subjected to when facing investment decisions and how they may impact the outcomes of these decisions. Moreover, you will see how emotions and ethical concerns such as honesty and trust influence market participants. When they are considered as a group rather than individually, you will discover how rationality and irrationality can drive asset prices to and away from their fair value. Finally, you will be presented with different portfolio construction methodologies and investment styles that make up the landscape of today's portfolio management industry. At key points throughout the course, you will benefit from the practical knowledge of experts from our corporate partner, UBS, in how to build and manage clients' portfolios....

Excellent coverage of topics. Personal favorite was the behavioral aspects in investing- the biases. Great practical industry insights from the UBS team as well. Highly recommended course.

Good course, however, it states no prior experience needed, whereas, you need experience in statistics and mathematics. It would be difficult for an art major to comprehend. Other than that, its a good foundational course on investments and the financial markets as a whole

the peer reviewed section is a big obstacles since there is not a lot of people who are enrolled it seems more like a way for coursera to get more subscription income than anything

Overall good but in comparison to 1st course this course is a bit advanced. So before doing this course I would suggest you to do some other financial markets course as well!

this course is pretty good, better than the first course. it just needs to be more interactive in each video to keep the student attached and alert to whatever you say
