This unit provides students with an understanding of the economic foundations of financial theory and the economic framework upon which that theory is based. Much of the work covered is an application of microeconomic theory to the special problems encountered in the study of the asset markets and the financial side of an economy. It provides an understanding of the role of financial assets and of the modern approaches to asset pricing theory.
