Have you ever wondered why studying economics is important in the world of work? How can you apply what you know to real world scenarios? This course is suited for someone who is either studying economics at school and wishes to learn more about how to apply what is learned in the classroom to global financial markets or anyone who is simply interested in learning how money flows around individuals and institutions around the world. I am currently a Master's student in Economics and Management of Innovation and Technology at Bocconi University and have a Bachelor's degree from LSE in Economic History. I have also interned at Nomura, the largest investment bank in Japan, where I worked in research and sales. Economics and global markets plays an increasingly important role in today's world. These lessons will give you a better understanding of why things happen in the way they do and will equip you with a core understanding of how to critically analyse major events to provide you with greater market awareness.
