Learner Reviews & Feedback for Understanding Financial Markets by University of Geneva

This course helped me to understand financial markets, instruments used in the financial market. I believe that after this course my understanding of the financial market improved a lot.

Good complete view of the financial market for beginners, with an easy to understand and fun approach.

Too macro

Its really helpful for me to gain knowledge about economy and financial market

quite hard to gasp the content. maybe it's just me, but more formal math would significantly simplfy the material.

The program is very good and I feel I am learning a lot but it assumes I know how to work with the mathematical formula's but I haven't done any derivative work for over 20 years and thus I would like the course to have a little addition bit to make sure these mathematical formula are explained and exercises given to help really learn them. I found the bearish and bullish curve very difficult to understand.

a great course, great professors. but there is a lack of technical explanation like NPV etc'

thank you it was very interesting

very theoretical course but with foresee practical implications.

A well thought out course. Usually clear and informative. There was the odd glitch of some reading material links failing.

The main lecturer was incredibly good, explained everything in a way that was easy to understand. Some of the other speakers were not as easy to understand. Well-structured course. The assignments could involve more case-studies/engaging activities.

I like the lectures delivered by "Michel Girardin", very thoughful & practical in nature. While some other lectures delivered by other faculty members seems to be more of reading the presentation points.

I learned different and interesting topics, but for me was difficult.

It was said to be the basic foundation knowledge for the financial markets. But I guess person without prior knowledge of Finance will face lots of difficulty to understand the course. Even the first module of this specialization was harder for a business student like me too.

Really nice course, perfect to start an understanding on how financial markets work.

Very good an brief summary of the markets and easily explained

Great introduction to complex issues. Professor is great!

Very good course in terms of materials and delivery. Good combination of academic content and commercial input. Assessments were generally good although I might quibble occasionally with some of the official answers.

Very insightful and easy to follow. Nice introduction to financial markets for the non-financially qualified.

Some modules seemed a bit vague during explanation.

This is good course for beginners in financial market.....

"Understanding financial markets" is a perfect description of what this course is about. If you have a basic knowledge about financial markets already, it may be somewhat easy. Still a perfect way to get started.

You will be able to learn the basics of financial markets and how economic growth behaves with respect to different economic parameters.The course is worth taking!

Good
