For PhD finance courses in business schools, there is equal emphasis placed on mathematical rigour as well as economic reasoning. Advanced Finance Theories provides modern treatments to five key areas of finance theories in Merton's collection of continuous time work, viz. portfolio selection and capital market theory, optimum consumption and intertemporal portfolio selection, option pricing theory, contingent claim analysis of corporate finance, intertemporal CAPM, and complete market general equilibrium. Where appropriate, lectures notes are supplemented by other classical text such as Ingersoll (1987) and materials on stochastic calculus.

Contents:

  • Utility Theory
  • Pricing Kernel and Stochastic Discount Factor
  • Risk Measures
  • Consumption and Portfolio Selection
  • Optimum Demand and Mutual Fund Theorem
  • Mean–Variance Frontier
  • Solving Black–Scholes with Fourier Transform
  • Capital Structure Theory
  • General Equilibrium
  • Discontinuity in Continuous Time
  • Spanning and Capital Market Theories

Readership: Graduates, doctoral students, researchers, academic and professionals in theoretical financial modeling in mainstream finance or derivative securities.
Key Features:

  • Complete and explicit exposition of classical finance theories core to theoretical finance research
  • Modern treatments to some derivations
  • Supplementary coverage on key related publications and more recent finance research questions
  • Detailed proofs and explicit coverage to aid understanding by first year PhD students
  • List of exercises with suggested solutions
