This course introduces students to both foundational derivative instruments and emerging innovations in modern financial markets. It covers core topics such as option pricing, futures, swaps, and structured products, while integrating newer financial instruments that involve ESG-linked bonds, crypto options, carbon credit derivatives, and AI-based trading products. Students will develop analytical skills through theoretical modeling, applied homework, and case-based presentations. The course encourages critical thinking, data-driven inquiry, and real-world relevance by engaging students in independent research and project work. Emphasis is placed on bridging derivative theory with current market practices and technological advances. Students will actively participate through regular quizzes, in-class discussions, presentations, and a final project. To accommodate different learning speeds, the instructor may adjust the pace and content as needed to support student comprehension and progress.
