Course Overview

Python for Finance is the crossing point where programming in Python blends with financial theory. Together, they give you the know-how to apply that theory into practice and real-life scenarios. In a world where individuals and companies are aiming to become more and more autonomous, your ability to combine programming skills with financial data will allow you to create independent analyses. And that competency will give you an edge over your competitors or in your personal investments. To prepare you for these multi-faceted challenges, this course provides the relevant topics in financial theory and their hands-on application in Python.

The course has met all my expectations. It has been a very good approach to concepts that are difficult to understand. I look forward to more courses like this one!

A little disappointed with this particular lecture because this code: F = wb.DataReader('F', data_source='yahoo', start='2005-1-1'), kept on generating an error
