G10-3 (2088) FINANCIAL MARKETS AND CREDIT RISK
The session focuses on two topics in financial economics, namely asset pricing and portfolio choice. In the session price behaviour of stocks on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange, as well as position sizing on the JSE are analysed. The influence of the new government bank guarantees on counterparty credit risk and the assessment of risk (and thus pricing) of co-operative banks' credit, also forms part of the session.
