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 purpose of the course is not only to give students new skills in both econometric tools and their application to contemporary economic problems, especially in financial economics, but also to study theoretically econometric methods and to review some sections of econometrics on a solid theoretical background. The structure of the course includes strict derivation of basic properties of estimation methods but excludes proofs of the most analytically sophisticated results. The main studying purpose of such topics is to clear understanding of econometric ideas, assumptions under which econometric approaches can be applied. At the same time, the students should get skills in reading and understanding of the most advance econometric articles.

Expected Learning Outcomes

• The student should have skills of application of the indicated tools and methods to researches in problems of Micro-, Macroeconomics and Finance.
