This course leads to the elucidation of the theories, concepts and practices that make up the complex and dynamic world of banking and financial markets and the plethora of risks embedded in that domain. You are able to identify such risks using tools such as ‘value at risk’ (VaR), ‘stress testing’, etc. You also gain knowledge about hedging instruments such as futures, options and swaps.

We will look at structured financial products such as Asset Backed Securities (ABS), Residential Mortgage Backed Securities (RMBS), Credit Default Swaps (CDS), Collateralized Debt Obligations (CDO) and their role in transferring/diversifying the risks to several entities in the financial markets.

We will also examine the unintended consequences and outcome of those risk transfer instruments that accentuated the systemic risk and eventually lead to the 2008 global financial meltdown.

In addition, we will look at special topics in risk management such as Value at Risk (VaR) and stress testing, as well as recent trends in regulation including the Basel-III guidelines on capital adequacy that have been implemented in several countries to manage risk in a proactive and consistent manner.

We will examine how far have those regulatory measures and guidelines been able to achieve the well-intentioned goal of safeguarding the stability of financial systems across countries and whether they would, in the future, be able to anticipate and avert cascading adverse outcomes as witnessed in the 2008 global financial crisis

You should have a minimum of 1+ Year of Experience with min 50% in any UG Program.
