Abstract
This seminar focuses on the role of personality in finance. How does the CEO's personality affect the company? What irrational decisions do investors make depending on the weather or their childhood experiences? Who is prone to short-termism and who has a long investment horizon? How does all this affect innovation in the company? And what do we know about behavioral biases and corporate governance in emerging markets? We will discuss all of this during the seminar.This seminar is worth choosing for those who already have a good understanding of classical finance and want to get a broader view of decision-making mechanisms in business and investments. The seminar is useful for those who are building a career in corporations and banks as well as in asset management.
