Overview

The Behavioural Finance course explores how psychological influences and emotional factors impact financial decision-making and market behaviour. Unlike traditional finance theories that assume investors act rationally, this course explains why individuals often make irrational financial choices. It is ideal for learners interested in finance, investing, economics, and human behaviour in financial markets.

Learners will study key concepts such as cognitive biases, heuristics, risk perception, and investor psychology. Topics include overconfidence, loss aversion, herd behaviour, anchoring, and mental accounting. The course also examines how these behaviours influence stock markets, investment decisions, and financial planning outcomes.

In addition, the program connects behavioural insights with real-world financial applications such as portfolio management, trading strategies, and financial advisory services. Through practical examples and case studies, learners will understand how emotions and biases affect financial outcomes. By the end of the course, participants will be able to identify irrational behaviour, improve decision-making skills, and apply behavioural finance principles to enhance investment performance and risk management.
