Kommentar/Beschreibung

Investment funds are the most important financial products for private and institutional investors. In Germany, 1.5 trillion EUR are invested into different types of investment funds. This number corresponds to 84 % of total money invested in the capital market (BVI statistic 31.03.2012) and to 53 % of the German GDP (Statistisches Bundesamt 2012). Thus, a profound knowledge of these products and the involved institutions is essential for finance students, practitioners and researchers.
In the course "Investment Funds" students will acquire profound knowledge of different kinds and
particularities of investment funds (e.g., mutual funds, hedge funds), the funds' regulatory framework and
state-of-the-art methods to assess their performance.
