I have set up this website to provide electronic versions of some of the materials used in class. For example, I will post on this site copies of general materials for the course, copies of the required readings that are not in the case package or textbook as well as copies of many of the materials presented in class (e.g., the slides used in the lectures, assignments, and some spreadsheets from cases).

Note: You will need a copy of the Adobe Acrobat reader to read documents marked with the symbol . The reader can be obtained free from the Adobe Web Site.

General Materials:

A copy of the course outline is contained in the course materials provided at the beginning of the course. In the course outline you will find details of the grading scheme and expectations for the course. The deliverables include an individual case memo on an assigned case that will be due during our final weekend together and a group project on a topic related to a global financial situation (Note: though there are few restrictions on the precise topic, the topic must be approved by the instructor before the last session).
