Profile
In the study of corporate finance, you will investigate the incentives which are fundamental to understanding the different forms of capital structure and payout policies. In addition, you will discuss the arguments underlying different forms of financing and management compensation.You will be introduced to advanced topics within the area of financial markets. Areas to be covered include, but are not limited to, an individual’s choice of consumption and portfolio selection, and progress to comprehensive pricing models. These models will be further developed into dynamic multi-period models, which are used in the most quantitative financial institutions.The ability to create mathematical pricing models will be essential as you progress into more advanced topics, for example, derivatives and credit risk.You will also learn how to deal with and/or prevent principal-agent problems, such as conflicts in owner-manager relations and the use of appropriate incentive schemes. Through game theory and advanced multi-period, multiple-agent models, you will develop a quantitative approach to solving problems of corporate governance. For instance, when writing contracts, you will deal with assumptions and asymmetrical levels of information or risk sharing in order to ascertain how these agency issues relate to particular governance systems in a corporation.
