What FIN/366 is really about
Banks, insurers, investment firms and markets channel savings into loans and investments. FIN/366 explains how interest rates and asset prices are set, how the Federal Reserve influences them, how each type of institution earns returns and manages risk and why regulators impose capital and liquidity rules.
Students typically analyze a recent Federal Reserve decision, price bonds under changing rates, compare the business models and risks of a bank and an insurer, evaluate a bank's financial statements and discuss how an event such as a bank failure or rate shock affected institutions and regulation.
What FIN/366’s assessments ask for
Faculty look for accurate explanations of monetary policy tools, bond pricing done correctly, institution risks identified with evidence and analysis of current events supported by credible sources.
Where students lose points in FIN/366
Work loses credit when the Federal Reserve's tools are confused, when interest rate risk is ignored in bank analysis or when news events are summarized without explaining their mechanisms. Sources such as blogs instead of the Federal Reserve or FDIC also weaken papers.

FIN/366 questions, answered
How does the Federal Reserve influence interest rates?
By setting the target for the federal funds rate and using tools such as interest on reserve balances, open market operations and its balance sheet.

The risk that changes in rates reduce the value of assets or squeeze the spread between what the bank earns and pays.
Why are banks required to hold capital?
Capital absorbs losses, protecting depositors and the financial system if assets lose value.
