Description

This course deals with the policy and tax issues which underpin new financial techniques and the products which have been based on these techniques. Basic to the course are the principles underpinning the deductibility and timing of interest payments. Derivative products are considered, particularly the instruments on which they are based, such as options, futures and forwards. More detailed consideration is given to specific products which are current in the market place such as instalment warrants, convertible securities, synthetic equity, LEPOS, swaps and the like. Recommended Prior Knowledge: Completion of ATAX0403 and ATAX0407
