Avis et commentaires pour l'étudiant pour Understanding Financial Markets par Université de Genève

You will be able to learn the basics of financial markets and how economic growth behaves with respect to different economic parameters.The course is worth taking!

Good

It could have been better if formulas were explained a little bit more in dept.

Professors teach nicely and made every point very clear. Course outline will really help if one is studying to be in investment management .

Good fundamentals. Yield curve discussion in lecture 4 was complicated. Introduction to '4 Pillars of Investing by Bernstein' very good

I had been a bit leery of taking this course because I feared a language barrier, but all of the instructors so far have spoken English very clearly. The information is well presented, although I sometimes find the graphs with the inverted scale on the right hand side confusing at first. I would recommend this class to others who are interested in getting the basics of how financial markets work.

Solid introduction to concepts in portfolio management

Very good indeed from a beginner's perspective. I would recommend it.

Very Good

Very good an brief summary of the markets and easily explained

Really nice course, perfect to start an understanding on how financial markets work.

Some modules seemed a bit vague during explanation.

This is good course for beginners in financial market.....

The videos of UBS Lecturers aren't that beneficial. Professor Ines wasn't that beneficial and she didn't deliver her concepts in a simple way. I liked Mr. Michel and his way of delivering his ideas. I liked the graphs and the correlations from the inverted time scale on the right.I liked the big mac PPP and the visual aids he used.Finally the last part of module 4 had too many information that can be delivered better by giving a quiz about it and to give time for each topic separately.

I enjoyed this course so much and I would recommend it for my friends

Very insightful and easy to follow. Nice introduction to financial markets for the non-financially qualified.

"Understanding financial markets" is a perfect description of what this course is about. If you have a basic knowledge about financial markets already, it may be somewhat easy. Still a perfect way to get started.

Well structured course. The graphs used to highlight the key relationships of various variables is insightful.

Great introduction to complex issues. Professor is great!

Very good course in terms of materials and delivery. Good combination of academic content and commercial input. Assessments were generally good although I might quibble occasionally with some of the official answers.

This was a great introduction into financial markets and monetary policy. It was exactly as advertised, and am happy with my selection

Great course with great teachers. Really good one for a newbie as me

Great information and knowledge but, since it is aimed to people with basic understanding of financial matters, I feel it has to have more detailed examples and cases (explained in a more detailed, step by step basis).

It was said to be the basic foundation knowledge for the financial markets. But I guess person without prior knowledge of Finance will face lots of difficulty to understand the course. Even the first module of this specialization was harder for a business student like me too.

I like the lectures delivered by "Michel Girardin", very thoughful & practical in nature. While some other lectures delivered by other faculty members seems to be more of reading the presentation points.

I learned different and interesting topics, but for me was difficult.
