Great Introductory course. Loved it!!!

This course on Crowdfunding is taught by Professor Dr. David Musto, Chair of the Finance Department at Wharton School. The professor is very clear and to the point. He makes sure his lectures are not confusing and not too technical for a non-finance/non-math major. His objective is to clarify the basics and underlying scope of the crowdfunding sector. The subject is interesting and the faculty is outstanding.

Excellent course from an erudite Professor. Some of the details like how the Jobs Act influenced crowdfunding, how the consumer lending sector is ripe for disruption through Fintech, are very useful. However, another sector which could find mention in this list is the education industry. Coursera and Edtech are also fintechs in a sense and India has its youngest billionaire from a very similar startup.

Very useful insights with background clearly explained,, and governance aspects clarified. Will be helpful if non-US examples and framework - especially in Asia & Europe, Australia are covered too as the course seems to be focused purely on the US market

Very informative course, with good examples. I particularly enjoyed the video of the Square executive. I just wish David Mutso's signature was somewhat legible on the course certificate.

Though material is tough and difficult, I received excellent teaching from rated #1 professor! THANK YOU VERY UCH.

Excellent course. However, It does not offer suggestions about additional readings (books, papers, etc.)

Very interesting, really enjoyed it - especially the relevant and up to date business cases. thank you

I would've liked more practical cases like the ones in the Week 4, but in the whole specialization.

This is an exceptional general all round course.

Enjoyed the lectures, thank you!!

Informative.

Outstanding

Covers the breadth of the emerging fintech industry well, but specific details or references to algorithms and techniques used in each of these sectors would have been interesting.

Hard course! I've learned a lot, but exams were difficult

The course was very up to date and relevant

Pprofessor was hard to follow with all the "ok" and fumbled words. Tried reading along and it reads the same as he spoke. This was hard to watch therefore turned into me taking quiz multiple times

Generally good. The best parts are the two case studies in week4, they provided good insights into the industry.

Some modules are extremely localized to US reality

US centric course, very biased (without a word of warning that it is a non global one).
