The course emphasizes the creation of optimal portfolios, the risk-return trade-off, and equips students with essential quantitative skills for financial decision-making. Practical applications and theoretical frameworks are combined to connect capital market concepts to real-world settings.

Main topics include derivatives such as futures, forwards, and options, along with pricing techniques like the binomial model, Black-Scholes formula, and put-call parity. Modern Portfolio Theory, the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH), and arbitrage pricing theory (APT) are introduced, along with stock valuation techniques and the study of market anomalies. In fixed income modules, students explore bond valuation, spot rates, yields, the term structure of interest rates, and advanced topics such as duration, mortgages, corporate bonds, and credit risk.

To enroll, students must have completed RSM230. The course has an exclusion for students who have taken ACT349 or ECO358. Additionally, it requires ECO204 or ECO206 as a co-requisite.
