This was highly enriching since working with people with different states of mind made me widen mine. Here are the most notable courses I effectuated: • Risk management → As a final project, two of my classmates and I wrote a paper analyzing, in retrospect, the financial crisis of 2008 from different viewpoint. In this one, we gave risk management advice that, to us, could have been helpful to avoid such a huge crisis.• Derivatives → During this course I did an individual presentation to the class on the Orange County Bankruptcy of 1994. I explained in detail how the abuse of derivatives played a major role in this case and gave some recommendations to my classmates regarding the use of derivatives. My presentation has been elected by my professor as the best of the semester.• Data Analysis• Principles of Investment• Corporate Finance Show less
