Course details
Machine Learning Fundamentals: This unit covers the essential concepts of machine learning, including supervised and unsupervised learning, regression, classification, clustering, and neural networks. It provides a solid foundation for understanding the applications of AI in portfolio optimization. •
Portfolio Optimization Techniques: This unit delves into various portfolio optimization techniques, including mean-variance optimization, black-litterman model, and risk parity. It helps students understand how to optimize portfolios using different methods and evaluate their performance. •
Asset Pricing Models: This unit explores different asset pricing models, such as the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), the Arbitrage Pricing Theory (APT), and the Factor-Based Models. It provides insights into how to price assets and understand their relationships. •
Alternative Data and Big Data Analytics: This unit focuses on the use of alternative data, such as social media, sentiment analysis, and alternative metrics, to improve portfolio optimization. It also covers big data analytics and how to extract insights from large datasets. •
AI-Powered Portfolio Optimization: This unit applies machine learning and artificial intelligence techniques to portfolio optimization, including predictive modeling, optimization algorithms, and backtesting. It provides hands-on experience with AI-powered portfolio optimization tools. •
Risk Management and Volatility Control: This unit covers risk management techniques, including value-at-risk (VaR), expected shortfall (ES), and stress testing. It also explores volatility control methods, such as GARCH and EGARCH models. •
Factor-Based Investing: This unit introduces factor-based investing, which involves identifying and targeting specific factors, such as value, momentum, and size, to optimize portfolios. It provides insights into how to use factor-based models for portfolio optimization. •
ESG and Sustainability Investing: This unit explores the role of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors in portfolio optimization. It covers ESG metrics, sustainability investing, and how to incorporate ESG considerations into portfolio optimization. •
Regulatory Compliance and Tax Efficiency: This unit discusses regulatory requirements and tax implications for portfolio optimization. It covers topics such as tax-loss harvesting, wash sales, and how to optimize portfolios for tax efficiency. •
