Global Financial Markets Fundamentals
A structured introduction to how global equity, fixed income, currency and commodity markets are organized, who participates, and how prices and risk are communicated.
This course teaches the core workflow of fundamental equity research: understanding a business, analyzing its financial statements, forecasting key drivers and estimating value. You will build a three-statement model, compute quality and efficiency ratios, and apply both relative valuation and discounted cash flow methods. The emphasis is on transparent assumptions, sensitivity analysis and clear written research rather than price targets or recommendations.
