Catalog description

This course introduces students to the broader field of alternative investing through an in-depth analysis of distressed debt investment opportunities. As part of the course, students will study a variety of applied case studies, while leading practitioners in the alternative investment industry will visit the class as guest lecturers and mentors to the students as they build their foundation of knowledge.
