Most financial training deal with these asset classes and economics separately, but we want to show students how professionals use their understanding of the interplay between them to their advantage. The course will consist of 4 modules on the aforementioned asset classes and economic indicators, and should take 6-8 hours to complete. Students will receive a certificate of completion at the end of the course.
