Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences

The aim of the course is to provide a general knowledge of econometrics with application to the practical finance and financial modelling. It is placed the great emphasis on the general principles and methods in order students to be able to solve the real problems. It is possible in the course to work on real problem of diploma thesis. Students will be able after the course: - to apply estimation methods correctly and suitably, - to create empirical models not only for financial time series, - to make predictions of future trends, - to work with mathematical software.

Summary

The course is focused on application of econometrical methods to the finance. It aims at creating empirical models applicable both in corporate finance as well as in financial modelling. Within the seminars, selected problems of proposing empirical models are solved and the emphasis is placed on their practical application. The course is a good complement to the course Econometrics. Problems are solved mainly in Microsoft Excel.
