Students will use financial statements and data to develop analysis, valuation, and capital budgeting of investment projects and enterprises and risk management of financial flows and investments. Risk management component will focus on traditional risk assessment and modeling and will extend to cover applications to Environmental, Social, and Governance risk. We will also extend risk management framework to account for VUCA (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, and Ambiguity) environment as consistent with modern enterprise strategy development and operations.
