very easy to learn with an awesome teacher.thank you sir, thank you coursera A very simple coarse to understand the different financial terms and its usage to the business Excellent course for beginner in finance dull Great course.
This is a good course to introduce the novice to financial terms used in common place.But in my opinion, the instructor could have a gone a bit further, explaining about Markets, Stocks, Bonds etc.Types of transactions involved.Maybe its expecting too much, but still, just a suggestion The lectures are quick and concise.
Really digested and simplified for people unfamiliar with financial terms or without an strong background on economics.
Vague is very useful and interesting Great intro course and very helpful in building understanding for someone who is not familiar with the financial terms.
