Obiettivi Formativi

This course aims to provide a comprehensive and systematic account of financial econometric models and their applications to modeling and prediction of financial time series data, focusing on asset returns and volatilities. The students will learn the analytical tools needed for the specification and estimation of econometric models with financial data. At the end of the course, students will have a working knowledge of financial time series data and gain expertise in the software used to conduct the analyses.

Prerequisiti

The course is meant to deepen the technical knowledge of the econometric methods used in the analysis of financial markets. Necessary prerequisites are:
econometrics (the multiple linear regression model, OLS estimation, hypotheses testing, maximum likelihood estimation). Basic probability theory and stochastic calculus.

Metodi didattici

In-person classes

Verifica Apprendimento

The examination is based on a written test. In the written test the students are requested to solve exercises and to answer short theory questions. Books and calculators will not be allowed in the exam.
