Course Outline
Modern finance portrays investment decision-making as rational choice. However, pure rationality does not describe how many decisions are truly made. This course examines (1) the behavioural strategies that amateur and expert investors rely upon to make decisions, (2) the structure and speculative dynamics of returns in world equity markets (from a psychological perspective), and (3) the practical implications of behavioural finance. The course includes a discussion of common psychological errors such as wishful thinking, extrapolation bias, tunnel vision, inertia, lack of self-discipline and emotional distortion.
