תוכן הקורס ומטרתו

Over the last 20 years, the market for alternative investments has been experiencing exponential growth. While Private Equity investing and teaching has become mainstream, the markets for alternative credit investing are less well explored.

This c. $10 Trillion global market has several main components with the largest ones being High Yield Bonds, Leveraged Loans, Private and Distressed Credit as well as Non-Performing loans and Securitized products.

The importance of this market continues to grow as investment performance of the asset class continues to be very strong and beats public market returns. As this market continues to grow, more graduates of Tel Aviv University will seek employment in this fast-growing segment of the financial markets and this course will offer them a strong basis of understanding of these investment strategies.

The Alternative Credit Investing course will provide real life access to the market and will
? Complement other core courses and electives
? Develop understanding of absolute and relative value and enhance knowledge of valuation methodologies across the cycle
? Provide skills, frameworks and experience to support careers and employment in leveraged buyouts, alternative credit investment markets, banking and asset management.
