Curricula and Syllabi in Financial Economics

This is a syllabus for a Masters level course on asset markets as taught by Dimitri Vayanos of the London School of Economics. This is the core investments course in the MSc Finance Full-Time Programme. It aims to familiarize students with the workings of asset markets and the fundamental tools of asset valuation. Three important asset classes are covered: bonds (25%), stocks (50%), and derivatives (25%).

Part of the Open Yale website, this course website covers financial markets as taught by Robert Schiller of Yale University in spring 2008. The course strives to offer understanding of the theory of finance and its relation to the history, strengths and imperfections of such institutions as banking, insurance, securities, futures, and other derivatives markets, and the future of these institutions over the next century. The website includes audio, transcripts, syllabus, lecture slides and exams with solutions.
