Description: This course aims to introduce students to behavioral theories of finance and financial decision making. Behavioral foundations including biases; heuristics; and
framing effects, will be examined. It then can compare and contrast rational and behavioral theories of finance and financial decision making. This extends students’ knowledge of finance
by demonstrating how “real” investors and markets do not always correspond to the rational agents and outcomes described in standard finance courses.
