  2. Constrained and Convex Optimisation

    Read objectives, constraints and optimality conditions.

  3. Linear Regression

    Interpret exposures, residuals and uncertainty in fitted coefficients.

  4. Financial Return Characteristics

    Work with returns and recognise their empirical limitations.

Go further

  1. Mean-Variance Optimisation

    Construct allocations and examine sensitivity to estimated inputs.

  2. Portfolio Constraints

    Turn mathematical weights into feasible portfolio decisions.

  3. Factor construction
