Bachelor of Commerce (Finance)

Finance is about money and investments. People on their own and in partnerships, companies and other entities, including state and federal governments, have a common objective of profitable investment. How do companies choose between possible investments, and how do they raise capital? How does hedging with options and futures reduce risk of an investment portfolio? What is the role of capital markets, and how do they value assets such as stocks, options and futures? These are the questions answered within the theory and practice of finance.

Preparatory Studies

Accounting, Economics, Mathematics and Statistics are all important foundations for understanding the theory and applications of finance principles. However, behavioural studies are also important for an understanding of applied finance issues and decision-making.
