This course studies biases in decision making, drawing on research in behavioral economics and psychology, and develops insights for business and financial market contexts.
Examples of topics covered include studying links between overconfidence and optimism in entrepreneurship as well as financial markets; understanding price bubbles and whether they are driven by irrational consumers; and how are new forms of financing such as crowd-funding susceptible to behavioral biases?
The primary objectives of this course are to introduce to students the concepts in behavioral economics that are most relevant to business and financial markets, and to study applications of these concepts in the actual business world.
