This subject introduces students to the theory and practice of modern portfolio theory and its application to investment analysis at a technically advanced level. The subject introduces the foundations of investment decision making under certainty and uncertainty, utility theory and portfolio selection via the mean-variance approach. The capital asset pricing model and the arbitrage-pricing model are also developed. The empirical testing of these equilibrium pricing models is discussed.
