Abstract

The first part of the course will be devoted to the corporate finance theory, i.e., to the financial theory of the firm. We will study the principles of optimal investment decisions by the managers of the firms, as well as the importance of choosing optimal capital structure. The second part of the course will be devoted to the theory of asset pricing. We will start with the fundamental theorem of asset pricing, which we then apply to deriving values of various financial securities
