Description

BEHAVIORAL FINANCE is a relatively new area of study.

Blending together psychology and finance, this subject came about as professors and practitioners of both professions found themselves faced with an inescapable truth:

PEOPLE ARE EMOTIONAL ABOUT MONEY!

Not only are people emotional about money, but this emotion and the misjudgement that it causes has a huge negative affect on the average person's finances.

Understanding the Psychology of Human Misjudgement, made popular by Warren Buffett's right hand man Charlie Munger, will help you to make better financial decisions, be a better investor, and help you build wealth much faster.

In this course you will learn:

1. Contrast Misreaction Tendency

2. Social Proof Tendency

3. Deprival Super Reaction Tendency

4. Over Optimism Tendency

5. Pain Avoiding Tendency

6. Reciprocation Tendency

7. Influence from Association

8. Envy/Jealousy Tendency

9. Kantian Fairness Tendency

10. Curiosity Tendency

11. Inconsistency Avoidance Tendency

12. Doubt Avoidance Tendency

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
