Overview

Key facts

Through the analysis of short and long-term financial objectives, companies need to create strong financial plans to ensure sustained growth. Having a comprehensive grounding in corporate finance will increase your ability to make robust business decisions based on sound financial principles.

London School of Economics and Political Science's Finance course is divided into two halves. The first half will give you an integrated view of three important asset classes: fixed income securities, stocks and derivatives. Through rigorous engagement with the course material, you will build your knowledge of the key concepts of risk, return, diversification, portfolio theory, market efficiency theory and the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM). You will also build an understanding of derivative instruments like forwards, futures, options and swaps, and their practical application in trading.
