I am so glad I took this course during the Covid Pandemic in 2020. A necessary knowledge to apply in today's world and so relevant to the events that are happening right now. It is even crazier how some content in this course has predicted the economic situation at the time this course was taken.

Economics and finance are offshhots of moral science. Financial or an economic health of a country in the long term is a reflection of the social equity or how good is the collective concience of the society at large. Financial instruments are powerful tools to achieve higher standards of living.

Prof Shiller gives a thorough and broad explanation of how things work in Finance. The variety of teaching methods and discussion fora with students presents a lively and multi-faceted approach to learning. Though a Finance professional myself, I many learnt things that improved my understanding.

A complete understanding of the importance and the modern role of Finance with examples from across the globe particularly the United States. The course topics were brilliantly complimented by the "Salon Sessions" which involved a lesson related question and answer session with Professor Shiller.

Extremely complete course. With content that helps from beginner to advanced.

Light didactics, which make even students with little command of the language acquire the necessary knowledge.

Also grateful for the improvement of subtitles in Portuguese. Despite arriving at the end of my course. lol

I really liked the way this course was designed and also I liked the contents of this course

I liked the way Proffesor Shiller teaches and explains each and every concept

I also liked the salon (discussion) sessions with the students

I know I will surely be benefitted by this course in the future

Hello all, I am Ananth from Mumbai, India. The Course was just amazing. I learnt many new things about financial markets and it's functioning all thanks to Coursera, Professor Shiller and all the teachers of Yale University. Looking forward to many more courses from Coursera and Yale University.

Professor Shiller is really knowledgeable in finance and can also draw a connection between finance and humanity. I understand now that finance is more than just about maximizing profits through financial markets, but also increasing our human capital, while also serving others at the same time.

Very informative and exciting course. The lecturer is an expert who has deep knowledge in his field and can utilize a lot of real life examples to illustrate the concepts. His way of explaining is also very easy to understand and relate. I will be happy to attend his other courses in the future.

As an MBA, this course made me familiar with economic concepts that I hadn't heard of before! I had an excellent time and will definitely replay the lectures to deepen my financial skills and knowledge. Thanks to Rober Schiller, his TA and everyone who helped to bring this course on Coursera.

Это очень классный курс, полноценный по объему и качеству знаний. Отдельно хочу отметить ценность последних трех бонусов, которые предоставлены были в просмотру в конце курса. Однозначно улучшилось мое понимание финансового рынка и его процессов. Полученные знания 100% будут полезны на практике

Fantastic journey through the financial markets of the world, especially US markets. Prof. Schiller is an expert who can easily lift you up to the top of financial management. I am so happy to undergo this course even though it is entirely different from my areas of research. Thank you coursera

Great course! It gives holistic understanding of Financial Markets. Lectures, salons videos and quizzes are done in a way that you learn fast and your knowledge is well structured. I enjoyed a lot the course. I am grateful to professor Mr. Robert Shiller for the knowledge and skills I have got.

Great course to understand the basics of financial markets, feels superficial but provides tons of new concepts and terminology that will be necessary to start in the world of finances. With enough curiosity you can expand on concepts provided here, and get a better understanding of economics.

The course offers a wealth of content, aiding in comprehending fundamental concepts and applying knowledge to basic investing. Furthermore, it provides valuable insights into the history of the stock market, delivering a simple yet effective explanation of both basic and intermediate concepts.

Thank you to Professor Schiller for making the lecture available. It covers a lot of the basics of the financial markets. Some of the assignments' questions are to test our understanding of the basics, and some require deeper thinking. The modules are practical in substance, not just theories.

Excellent course. Professor Shiller is a superb teacher. However, this course is not strictly for beginners. It is implicit that the prospective student has a knowledge of finance and investments. In other words, has completed at least one or two undergraduate courses in finance & investments.

It's nothing short of a phenomenal course conducted by an extraordinary professor whose way of teaching is sure to evoke an interest in finance among the learners. This course has given me a well-round understanding of financial instruments, their uses, as well as the importance of regulation.

It was a very interesting course, I just wished we the frontiers between chapters could have been drawn more clearly. Like CAPM & Efficient portfolio theory could have had a dedicated chapter that we would have then completed with a behavioural finance chapter (that is more or less week 2).

Well done - the basis, structure, methodology and expirience sharing can help a lot for organise well the approach to work with the finance. On daily job (as well for investors) it is usefull to keep as a background, to structurise market information, workload and goals. Thank you very much!

Extremely Amazing course! Thanks Prof. Shiller for such an in-depth and insightful course. I was introduced to the financial markets and instruments available in the markets which I was unaware about earlier. Thank you coursera and Yale university for this awesome course on Financial markets.

Es un curso increíble, excelente, un recorrido inolvidable por la estructura de los mercados financieros, no soy muy bueno con el idioma pero lo logre finalmente. Muchas gracias a Yale y muchas gracias al profesor Robert Shiller por brindarnos esta oportunidad tan valiosa y tan enriquecedora.

Course is very well structured to familiarise with the essentials of financial markets. Insights given by Professor are very useful and help understand practical part of markets lucidly. Overall course is recommended for those seeking initiation or those keen on brushing up theory of markets.

A wonderful overview of the American Financial Market by Nobel Prize Winner Prof. Schiller. It was absolutely amazing to understand the concepts of different fields of Finance. The addition of Psychological and Social aspect made the course even better. I have learned a lot from this course!

Es bastante completo, por momento es abrumante por tanto contenido que debes ver pero con la transcripción al menos en mi caso que me gusta leer, pues se vuelve llevadero de la manera que más te acomodes. La información que se enseña también es relevante y de actualidad. Realmente me gustó.
