Overview What You Will Learn Curriculum Instructor

Course Overview

Artificial intelligence (AI) is leading the front of the digital transformation strategy in finance today. AI can practically be employed in everything present in the digital world.

We will begin the course by learning about the time value of money and get introduced to many terminologies like NPV, IRR, payback rule, and payback period. All of these play a very crucial role in TVM. We will also discover about PV Calculation of Annuity from Perpetual. We will proceed further and get to know some interesting Numerical Methods for Pricing Options. There, we will explore the Binomial Trees, European Pricing Options, and the Black-Scholes-Merton option model. Finally, we will dive into the world of Time Series Data and get to know many things like Normality, ARIMA/SARIMA Model, Amihud’s Illiquidity, and Fama-Macbeth Regression.

At the end of the course, you will be able to master the art of applying Python-based programming to different paradigms in the financial industry and perform effective and efficient data analysis.

The necessary resources for this course are in the "Resources" section of Video 1.1. You can also access them through this direct link - https://github.com/ec-council-learning/AI-for-Finance
