NYU Tel Aviv is seeking a part-time lecturer to teach a course on Foundations of Finance, under the sponsorship of the Finance Department in the Stern School of Business of New York University. The course would be taught in the Spring 2025 semester (Jan. 20 - Apr. 29, 2025). The course is about financial markets and how financial assets (securities) are valued and traded. The three main types of financial asset are considered in turn: equity (with a focus on portfolio management); debt (both Treasury and corporate); and, derivatives (call and put options and forward and futures contracts). For each type of financial asset, the course answers four questions: What is the payoff from holding the asset? Where and how is the asset traded? How is the asset valued? How is the asset used? The course introduces and expands upon several important theories for valuing assets: the CAPM; no-arbitrage pricing for Treasury debt instruments; the Black-Scholes option pricing model; and, forward-spot parity for forward contracts.
