Learning outcomes

The course proposes itself as a deepening of topics already briefly studied in previous courses on Economics of Banking Institutions and Economics of Financial Markets. The course thus analyses the main issues related to private and corporate banking. The course is then split into two parts: the first analyses private banking, the second relates to corporate banking. In the former, advisory services for financial instruments offered to retail investors are investigated, in the latter structured finance operations are explored.
