The goal of Distressed Value Investing is to provide students with broad-based exposure to what is one of the most complex and intellectually stimulating areas of the market.  The class will introduce distressed investing broadly, touching on many different styles of investing in distressed companies and securities.  The class also emphasizes hands-on distressed analysis, teaching students to interpret and learn from dynamic real-life situations.  To facilitate this learning process, the class includes the insights of many guest speakers.
