Description

ECON350 provides a review and analysis of the role and characteristics
of financial markets and the institutions and intermediaries that
facilitate the various markets' primary and secondary market functions.
The focus will be on both the Australian and broader Asian context, with
applications made in particular to China's equity markets (namely Hong
Kong and Shanghai). The structure of equity, debt (fixed-income) and
derivative markets feature as key areas with due consideration given to
the characteristics and pricing of the underlying securities that trade
in such markets.
