Course Syllabus
Abstract
The course will be a core one for the Banking Institute Master program “Financial Analyst”. The course is intended for studying during the first and the second semester of the Master level education. The course is a prerequisite for some both core and specialized courses of the curriculum. Because of study of material of the course, a student should master and be able to prove the basic facts of strict development of classical econometrics. She/he should also know main ideas of univariate and multivariable time-series analysis including Box-Jenkins approach, ARIMA (p, d, q) models, non-stationary time-series, unit root tests, co-integration, VAR and VECM.
Learning Objectives
- The course aims to provide students with: • knowledge on the fundamentals of econometrics and its application • knowledge and proficiency on the use of statistical package STATA for econometric analysis • practice in conducting data analysis and application of econometric tools in research and analytics
Expected Learning Outcomes
- Course gives opportunities to students to study how to apply econometrics and statistical software to model economic and financial processes, justify causal relations, find their main determinants and make forecasts.
Course Contents
- Introduction
- Matrix algebra
- Probability theory of and statistics.
- The linear regression model. Least squares. Goodness-of-fit and analysis of variance
- The Gauss–Markov assumptions. Linear hypothesis testing
- Interpreting and comparing regression models
- Heteroskedasticity. Generalized least squares
- Autocorrelation.
- Endogeneity, instrumental variables and GMM
- Models based on panel data
- Maximum likelihood estimation and specification tests
- Binary choice models
- Tobit models
- Univariate time series models.
- Choosing ARMA model and its estimation
- Multivariate time series models
- Dynamic linear models.
Assessment Elements
- Intermediate test (mid-term)The intermediate test (IT, Module 2) includes tests and problems on the topics 1-9
- Final examFinal exam includes tests and problems on the topics 10-20. Activity on classes is appreciated: Student is marked to be active on a class if he\she solves problems at home and at the (black-) whiteboard. Activity points might be considered as a bonus for the final grade of the course. A remarkable difference between the activity and the final exam scores may be a reason for additional oral examination at the discretion of the tutor
