Excellent Beginner level course. I learned why things are the way they are in Finance. Good to know the history of things as well. This course does not reach how to buy stocks, bonds, or any other instruments.

The professor and TA were outstanding, the lectures and explanations were clear, and the assignments were excellent. I'd only desire to see a little more mathematical rigor, but that's probably just my thing.

Decent overall introduction to the world of Finance! The lecturer presents the content with passion and expertise, btw I would recommend watching the lectures at 1.25x speed due to him talking rather slowly.

The course is rich in content and you can learn a lot. The professor's speech is also very clear, and the speed of speech is not very fast, so students who are not native English speakers can understand it.
