ACCT 332 - Investments

Credits: 4

This course is to offer a broad overview of investment management issues. We examine how individuals make choices among investment alternatives that have uncertain payoffs in the future. An understanding of risk and return for individual securities and portfolios is necessary for making these decisions. We then evaluate financial decision making for the market as a whole to describe the valuation process for different securities. The course covers topics on portfolio theory, asset pricing models, efficient market hypotheses, fixed-income securities, derivatives securities, equity portfolio management and portfolio performance evaluation.
