FIN 622:The course is designed as a workshop in which law students
and business students will work together to structure and
negotiate varying aspects of a private equity deal, from the initial
term sheet stages, through execution of the purchase
agreement, to completion of the financing and closing. Private
equity deals that are economically justified sometimes fail in the
transaction negotiation and documentation phase. This course
will seek to provide students with the tools necessary to tackle
and resolve difficult deal issues and complete successful deals.
Students will be divided into teams of lawyers and business
people to review, consider and negotiate actual transaction
documents. Issues presented will include often-contested key
economic and legal deal terms, as well as common ethical
dilemmas.

FIN 624:This is a course dealing with the valuation and use of derivative financial assets. Our
focus will almost exclusively be on exchange-traded products. Initially --- and for a
large portion of the semester --- we will study call and put option contracts having
common stocks as their underlying assets. We will consider relative pricing
requirements for these contracts which are enforced by arbitrage trading strategies.
Extension of this analytic technique will lead to the derivation of exact valuation
models. We will conclude our study of options by examining options with other
underlying assets.
Continued…
Finance Electives
FIN 624 (cont.):During the second portion of the course we will study futures contracts. The focus
again will be on relative pricing requirements enforced by arbitrage trading strategies.
The overall objective of the class is to give students the skills to assess the values and
risks of derivative financial assets and to develop trading and hedging strategies based
on their analyses.

FIN 628:This course is intended to give students an idea of the work
conducted by investment banks. Areas reviewed will include
debt financing, equity underwriting, merger & acquisition
advisory assignments, and trading activity. Special emphasis
will be placed on the methods commonly applied when
conducting valuation, debt capacity, and transaction analysis.
In addition, to provide context, there will be a brief summary of
investment banking history and of the peripheral players
(private equity and hedge funds) which increasingly interact
with banks. At the conclusion of the course, the student should
have developed stronger corporate finance analytic skills, an
improved understanding of the execution process associated
with certain investment banking product areas, and a broader
awareness of the complex issues that often emerge during
investment banking assignments.
