"In the Behavioral Finance module the always rationally acting homo oeconomicus reaches its limits: The financial decisions of market players are in reality, for example, significantly influenced by an overestimation of their own capabilities and inconsistent risk preferences. The effects of these findings and the extent to which the behavioural errors of many financial market participants are far-reaching will also be understood with the help of interactive experiments in the lecture. I also liked the fact that we worked in teams to develop some of the content ourselves and then present it to our fellow students."
