Very insightful and thought-provoking!

I didn’t major in finance but was able to understand various ideas and concepts thanks to Professor’s easy-to-understand lectures.

Some equations were difficult to understand because I didn’t know much about the language of mathematics. I had to ask my friends for further explanations. Maybe the course can make improvements regarding that.

This was the perfect introduction to the world of finance for someone like me, a novice in this field. Robert Shiller is a pragmatic, forward thinking and mindful voice in the world of finance. The course is easily digestible, highly informative and a pleasure to learn useful knowledge that I can take forward and use in the real world. Thanks Coursera, Yale and Robert Shiller .

I literally enjoyed every minute of this valuable course especially that it was given by the best professor ever Robert Shiller. It was a great honor and pleasure to listen to Professor Shiller's ideas and his outstanding way in exemplifying hard definitions and even formulas to simple and everyday practices. Thank you Yale and Coursera for such a beautiful valuable experience.

I'm still in awe. I actually got really emotional when Professor Shiller gave the final lecture. I couldn't believe it was about to end. I am now more inspired to change my life and the lives around me. Great theory, great explanations, everything was right, coupled with amazing lecture notes, diagrams and a good assistant. I would do any course by Professor Shiller again.

That was one of the best course ever. Thank you so much for creating it and sharing your knowledge! That was absolutely helpful for me because I didn't have any previous economy background but I could understand quite well the concepts explained. I firmly recommend this course, it is must know of our every day life that can help us extinguish financial illiteracy in the world.

Theh course is very well desgined at times it feels its close to US, but in retrospective that was useful as markets like housing and real estate will be chathcing up sooner or later to what mechanism US has in place for countries like India. Professor Shiller is an absolute delight his passion towards making world a better place using finance as technolog is quite inspiring.

The course gives some introduction to classic topics of finance but it built on ideas, insights, innovations of social finance and hence is not a technical course. This was a wonderful surprise as the internet is full of difficult courses about financial modeling and then it allowed me to rethink finance and reason about the most important issues and challanges in the future.

I loved this course. As an undergraduate student with a very limited understanding of financial markets, this course was a great introduction and covered all the key concepts. The workload is very manageable, and Professor Shiller is extremely engaging. I am very grateful for the opportunity to have learned from such a renowned economist. I highly recommend Financial Markets!

Un excelente curso introductorio a los mercados finacieros. Deja muy en claro los conceptos básicos, intermedios y avanzados del mundo financiero, con un gran enfoque humano y alto balance referente a lo regulatorio.

Motiva a seguir aprendiendo y profundizando más en el tema. Me gustaría que los exámenes tuvieran más preguntas para evaluar más a fondo el contenido aprendido.

The course was found to meet my expectations. Professor Schiller introduced us with mastery and profound knowledge in the topics of finance, making us understand the evolution of the times and the need to return to finance for man. I thank the professor, Yale University and the University of Catania for giving me the opportunity to explore these issues, with a look overseas.

A huge thank to Professor Shiller for his beautiful work and kindness, to Yale University for the unbelievable opportunity to study in, to Coursera team, great platform and worldwild proximity, for your desire to help and to give opportunity for better life in broad sense and for letting me the opportunity to be a student for free. Thank you again! Best wishes and good luck!

This course is so useful for knowing about finance in depth it gives more examples about finance. It helps to make more decisions in the finance market. It also motivates students to be attracted towards finance. This was a great experience. A course taught by a valued teacher. I enjoyed it all the way through, but I would have liked more mathematical and theoretical models

A message of thanks to Professor Robert J. Shiller and the Coursera team for a very complete introduction to finance, focused on the social and behavioral effects and phenomena of finance. This was also my first contact with any type of economic studies, and gave me a good impression of the guiding principles of economic theory and analysis. Obrigado, Tiago Baptista Lopes

Outstanding Course with valuable knowledge. I think the teaching style could be involved in this course as financial knowledge is very valuable in current situation and online education is the best platform to go with. The presentation and explanation can be more creative and give more easier examples for better understanding and generate interest of the following content.

Really enjoyed this curse providing a comprehensive introduction into the world of finance. Professor Schiller is a great lecturer who is capable of explaining complex theory in a precise and understandable way, sharing interesting insights from his vast experience in this field. Fully recommend taking this course for everyone, not only for people engaged with the matter.

Great course to deepen your knowledge about financial markets and gain insight how things are in the States which is very helpfull if you are a foreigner and are being taught only "local" stuff. Mr. Schiller is very easy to listen to and may be very similar to your gramps which you might have lost in early age same as I did. Too bad this course has to end. Will miss this.

One of the Best Course for Financial Knowledge with History knowledge on how it evolved. Some things are missing in this course which is how a Trade Lifecycle Works. that's really important for a Student to know. I am a Business/Quality Analyst in an Investment Bank. Soits really important to know that for an Interview and for Background. otherwise the Course is amazing.

A unique course of Risk and Portfolio Management, with not just learning about Stock Markets and managing risks but how to analyse and reduce it by covering the history of stock market understanding the contents behind markets being bearish and bullish. Prof. Shiller made me understand all the concepts by giving relevant and experienced examples in almost all the topics.

I'm a university student. I followed this course in order to learn about investment, financial markets etc. I want to thank Professor Robert James Shiller for the amazing learning exposure. This course is amazing. The teaching quality at Coursera is perfect. This gives infinity value to the certificate provided by Coursera. Coursera is marvelous. Thank you very much.

This was a most excellent course, interesting and very well taught. It's not often you get unfettered access to a senior lecturer and a Nobel Laureate at that. Professor Shiller is amazing as a straightforward, unassuming yet immensely knowledgable expert and teacher on a fascinating subject that not enough people understand or even know much about. Take this class!

Thank you, Professor Robert Shiller! I have learned a lot in these 7 modules, and I do agree that this kind of information should be more widely studied by the common people. One would find it hard to safeguard one's self from something one does not know about afterall. I'll try my best to apply the lessons I have learned in my life going forward as well. Cheers!

Excellent course to give whole picture of our financial world, how it started and where it goes, and the necessary knowledge and ethics to navigate it. It will be a misunderstanding to take it for beginners or non-professionals, because especially the ones who know financial economics will benefit a lot from the perspectives that Professor Shiller shares with us.

Incredible course. Over my expectations. Professor Shiller made it all easy to understand. Interviews were just great, and I feel I have received more than a course, a lesson for life trough those interviews. The dynamic of the course was great, videos, examples, translation, etc, what a great way to learn!!

Thank you Professor Shiller, Yale and of course: COURSERA

This is a course everyone needs to take regardless of your field or specialization. This breaks down the financial markets and the players and other key concepts in traditional and modern day finance as it relates to our daily activities. I strongly recommend this course to all who are thinking about starting a career in finance or willing to enhance their career.

I was pleasantly surprised with the in depth coverage of the American financial system and the banking system. Well presented in a friendly manner with Professor Shiller.

The discussion groups were interesting and the light hearted approach to material and the financial markets was a refreshing change to other economics courses I have completed. Bravo. Well done
