CIB Slides:
Instructor-Prepared Slides for Corporate and Investment Banking

These slides will closely follow the relevant in-class lectures and the relevant chapters from the Coursepack.

Students requiring review in mathematics or elementary finance should do so before the second week of the term (This is important). Comfort with all of the material in Chapters 2 through 8 of the Elementary Mathematics Review will be essential to this course. In addition, material covered in an introductory finance course  will be necessary for keeping up with the course. Material related to introductory finance may be obtained through Chapters 4 through 6 of the Elementary Mathematics Review . Material in Chapters 7 and 8 of the Elementary Mathematics Review will be might be helpful later as well. End of chapter solutions are provided as well. Finally, many students will find readings that may be added from time-to-time on the Additional Readings page to be helpful for exam preparation or otherwise interesting. A separate page for exam preparation may also prove quite useful. There are links to sample exams as well. Feel free to report any difficulties to or obtain any needed assistance from John Teall
