This subject applies modern financial techniques to the management of diversifiable risks. These techniques include hedging, real options, portfolio design, swaps and leverage; and are combined with concepts such as corporate behavioural finance and utility functions. This enables students to develop quantitative measures of diversifiable, or business, risks and manage them effectively. The aim is to provide a comprehensive theoretical understanding of the nature and sources of diversifiable risks - financial risk strategy - so that these risks can be leveraged strategically. -- Course Website
