The digital material is made up of videos, lecture notes and technical supplements which cover a set of concepts and techniques that we believe are most relevant in asset allocation and portfolio construction decisions.
The material is divided in 3 parts or sections, each related to one form of risk management: Diversification, Hedging, Insurance.
Each part is in turn divided into 3 chapters, hence the total number of 9 chapters and therefore 9 related videos, sets of lecture notes and case studies.
The recommended sequence of actions for each chapter is as follows: first watch the related video, taking the time to stop and take notes as needed, then read the corresponding lecture notes, and dig further with case studies which will provide you with a practical approach of investment solutions.
You will be able to interact with your peers via discussion forums and put your questions to the EDHEC-Risk team using a simple interface. This is a chance to tap into a broad community of learners from the finance industry.
