Build an integrated understanding of exchange rate dynamics, corporate governance, and ESG factors in global investment analysis. You will examine exchange rate mechanics, triangular arbitrage, forward rates, interest rate parity, purchasing power parity, capital flows, and the macroeconomic, market, and political forces that drive currency movements and crises. You will also explore corporate ownership structures, shareholder conflicts and influence, governance practices, and environmental, social, and governance considerations affecting issuer risk, valuation, and long-term performance.

Designed for learners seeking to strengthen their cross-border investment and issuer analysis skills, this course will help you calculate forward exchange rates, apply parity conditions, interpret currency crisis indicators, identify conflicts between shareholders, evaluate governance mechanisms, and assess ESG factors in corporate analysis. What distinguishes this course is its integrated approach to currency economics and corporate governance. By connecting market pressures and policy changes with ownership, oversight, and sustainability considerations, you will develop a broader view of investment risk and make better-reasoned evaluations of companies and international investment opportunities.
