Lýsing

Derivatives are widely known financial instruments that can be used very effectively to hedge against or speculate on any financial markets risks/behaviour. Derivatives also have had the bad rap as the weapons of the mass destruction (courtesy of Warren Buffet). This course will cover the practical applications of basic building blocks of derivatives (i.e. forwards, futures, swaps and options) and then use the options as the base to construct other more useful, effective and powerful risk-management and speculation options. In addition, the course will discuss the valuation (or quantification of the risks underlying) these options using spreadsheets (including the construction of zero rate curves and volatility term structures). Time permitting, the course will also discuss a few case studies on how these are applied in practice.
