CDTs, TES (Colombian government bonds), corporate bonds and collective investment funds explained with Colombian cases, official data that updates on its own and our own calculators. To invest with judgment or to value securities like a professional.
Start where you are. If you begin with Level 1, you can move up to the full course later by paying only the difference.
If you hold a CDT or a fund, or you are thinking about buying TES, and you want to know what you are buying: how to read any interest rate, how to choose and measure a fund, why prices rise and fall, how much you really beat inflation by, what risks you take, how to combine fixed income and equities, and how much tax you pay.
For analysts, advisors, treasurers and students: valuation with real dates, clean and dirty prices, indexed securities (CPI, UVR and IBR), the zero-coupon curve and forwards, duration and convexity, credit risk, portfolio strategies and a lab with real episodes from the Colombian market.
Each lesson takes minutes to read and comes with examples you can move: change the rate, the term or the amount and see what happens to your money.
