INTEREST RATE CALCULATIONS
PROGRAM OUTLINE
Interest rates can be observed, traded through and affect pricing of products in all asset classes. Studying them is useful to understand the interest rate and fixed income markets better but also essential in equity valuation models and also when analysing returns on investments. Understanding of interest rates can often be overrun with mathematics and formulae. This class will aim to have markets focus and keep mathematics to a minimum. That said, as the titles says, there will be calculations – so bring a calculator (preferably a bond calculator or bond calculator app)
