This is an introductory course on banking. It provides students with an understanding of microeconomic, macroeconomic and political aspects of banking and financial markets. An analysis of financial institutions/banks is further developed by the assessment of their activities and key associated risks including credit, market, liquidity, market, operational risks and other non-financial risks. The course also outlines banking management techniques trying to create value for shareholders whilst keeping the risks in mind. Last but not least, the regulatory framework of the global banking industry will be discussed.
