Fixed Income Strategies - 2nd Trimester 2017/2018

3.5 ECTs / Trimester-Long Course / English

The aim of the course is to provide a general overview of the new products available for fixed income investors, mainly at the credit front via securitization. Most of them allow investors to reap the benefits of yield pick-up and diversification versus the traditional market offers. The understanding of the economics behind ABS/CMBS will be crucial to analyze more complex securities like CDOs/CLOs.
