Description:
The lecture focuses on the fundamentals of investment and financing. In the first part of the course, the capital value criterion is introduced as the primary rule for evaluating cash flows. Subsequently, the capital value criterion is applied to the valuation of bonds, stocks, and investment projects. The second part of the course addresses risk aspects. Specifically, an introduction to portfolio theory is provided, and the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) is introduced to ultimately determine the risk-adjusted interest rate for discounting risky cash flows. In the final part of the course, the capital market as a source of financing for companies is examined in more detail. Particular attention is paid to the Efficient Market Hypothesis, the various financing instruments, and the possibility of raising capital through the capital market. Upon completing the module, students are equipped to understand and critically assess entrepreneurial investment and financing decisions.
