Course Syllabus
Abstract
The course is devoted to building queries to unload financial data and writing Python programs for further processing and hypothesis testing.
The course consists of three parts:
1) The unit on databases includes working with the Wind terminal through the MS Excel add-in and offloading financial data from Yahoo Finance, Fred, and the Kenneth French database. Data processing includes cleaning outliers, bringing tables with different financials to a standard format, and constructing benchmarks. Hypothesis testing uses standard econometric methods for large datasets and practice-oriented methods, including fundamental indexing and portfolio construction techniques.
2) An overview of graph methods in business. Modern ML and practical applications. Anti-fraud, customer segmentation, and risk identification.
3) AI and ML techniques in banking analytics.
Learning Objectives
- - Understanding how to use Python for getting financial data, including stock market data, financial report data, and alternative data.
