Course Description:
Each session of the lecture consist of two parts. In the first part, certain capital market topics (see below) will be discussed theoretically and various papers will be discussed what researchers have found when they analyzed capital markets empirically. In the second part, students have to apply these topics directly to capital market data sets. During this part students should implement the ideas learned in the first part of the lecture. The implementation is conducted with the help of MATLAB. Thereby, students also learn how to handle large data sets of capital market data. At the end of the term students will present a seminar paper that addresses a special topic of capital market research. This seminar consists of a written seminar paper, a software code (which analyses a particular data set) and a presentation. Main topics (can vary from year to year).
