Principles of Real Assets

1.5 Credits · Level: Graduate, Undergraduate

The real assets industry is undergoing significant upheaval due to the massively disruptive effects of the Global Pandemic coupled with the abrupt rise in interest rates for an asset class that is heavily debt-dependent. This course will introduce the student to the real assets industry and the people and firms who are leading the business. Students will also gain an introductory knowledge of topical areas that will be discussed throughout the MS-GRA program including, time value of money, valuation, capital markets, sustainability, and housing affordability. The course will leverage our Washington, DC location for access to people and projects that are highly relevant to the city and our collective future.
