Программа курса: что вы изучите
Week 1: Time Value of Money - Simple Concepts & Applications
This week, we introduce the framework of time value of money (TVM) in a carefully structured way, with a focus on Future Value using relatively simple applications. As mentioned in the Syllabus, all concepts are introduced using examples and you are strongly encouraged to pause the videos and do every problem.
Week 2: Time Value of Money - Simple Concepts & Applications (cont.)
During this second week, we build on Week 1 and move to the much more often used concept of Present Value. We again use simple examples, focusing on situations we confront on a daily basis. All concepts are introduced using examples that you need to do yourself to stay on top of the concepts. The second week also provides you an opportunity to test your knowledge up to this point with a required submission of the first graded assignment.
Week 3: Time Value of Money - Annuities
During this week, we will progress to more complex concepts and applications of finance.
Week 4: Time Value of Money - Complex Applications
This week ends the course with relatively complex applications of finance. We spend a lot of time on understanding how borrowing and lending really works. You will also get an opportunity to test your understanding of the basic principles of time value of money by submitting the second assignment for the course. You will also learn how top use Excel and show your competence in doing so.

The course speed was really good for a noobie like me in the finance. Having a grip on fundamentals is essentials thanks for making me understand . Thanks and greets to Gautam Kaul. :)
A fantastic course that very clearly and efficiently lays out the fundamentals of finance. Would recommend for anyone trying to learn more about personal and other types of finance.
Gautam Kaul is really awesome. He just doesn't teach but really interacts with us even with online videos. It always feels like he can see me and is really talking to me personally.
Very well taught class. I feel I have much more knowledge on finance than before I started. I am eager to complete the specialisation after taking this course. Thank you so much.
