Avis et commentaires pour l'étudiant pour Biases and Portfolio Selection par Université de Rice

O

Great course!

The course material is excellent to give first the financial background necessary to understand portfolio selection, then introduce the psychological factors that get in the way of making "cold and objective" decisions.

The subject is kept very interesting throughout.

Possibly my favourite course out of the four in the specialization.

Great course on application of behavioural finance in business decision making

One of the best courses on the subject. Period.

Dr. O, does a great job in uncovering the biases that affect investors and funds.

A must if you are serious about investing and managing a portfolio.

Perferct!

I've learnt a lot with this course. Sometimes we don't stop to think about how to think on making decision.

Excellent course material

Thoroughly enjoyed the course

An excellent course combining psychology and behavioral biases with finance. An eye-opener for students and managers relying exclusively on quantitative techniques to solve finance problems.

I've tried a few courses that are similar and this one is better than average.

A bit too easy in comparison to the previous module. The Efficient Market Hypothesis is perfectly explained as well as many other things. I think more practical manipulations with data would have been useful.

Extremely interesting but could be more detailed showing more specific data and examples with downloadable spreadsheets.

The course is good but the lack of response from ANY teachers/assistants is frustrating. It is also very frustrating waiting WEEKS for anyone to respond on your peer-reviewed work. By the time I get feedback, I am already completing the next course in the specialization and the feedback is barely valuable anymore as I have had to figure it out myself. (Still waiting on feedback on for assignments in course 3 of 5 and I am beginning work on the capstone project.)

A little light on content, but lots of great examples and case studies.

Too many errors in the graded assignments.

Quite disappointing. Lecturers / tutors no responding in time, and the solution provided are questionable, which already happened in earlier courses of this specialisation.
