課程概述

Course Description
The major goal of this course is to equip students with comprehensive understanding of financial derivatives. A derivative instrument is a financial contract whose payoff depends on or is derived from the value of one or a set of underlying assets. We will cover four categories of derivatives, including forwards (遠期合約), futures (期貨合約), swaps (交換合約), and options (選擇權). Students will learn how these derivatives are traded. We will also learn how these derivatives should be priced and trading strategies associated with them.
