MFIN 2270 Data Analytics in Finance
Corporations, investment banks, and asset management firms increasingly base their operational and investment decisions on the statistical analysis of "big data." In this course, you will be introduced to Python, a popular open-source modern programming language, and learn how to use it to extract data from online sources, estimate univariate and multivariate regressions on real-world financial data, and perform Monte Carlo simulations.
