Poslední úprava: Mgr. Magda Pečená, Ph.D. (05.10.2023)
The course covers key topics related to bank operations. It helps students understand the nature of banks' balance sheets and their credit policies, asset and liabilities management, and main risks related to banks' business model such as interest rate risk, credit risk, market risk, operational risk, and liquidity risk. It also covers the basics of bank capital and liquidity regulation (Basel I-III). Each lecture is followed by a tutorial that provides students with examples and exercises related to the topic of the lecture. As a course project, students will work in small groups and prepare a credit application (a document with quantitative analysis with which a company asks a bank for a loan) as well as an appraisal of a different group's credit application (a document with which the bank's credit committee assesses the credit application). Background in finance and financial mathematics is required for enrolling in this course.
All course documents are available in Moodle: https://dl1.cuni.cz/course/view.php?id=15191
