The domestic market is only a small part of what happens on global stock exchanges, while most companies, currencies, and investment opportunities lie beyond it. This self-paced course, designed for people who already understand the basics of investing, teaches how to approach portfolio management from an international perspective. The program includes presentations, quizzes, and additional materials that you complete independently at a convenient time. The course explains the division of global markets into developed, emerging, and frontier markets, highlights regional differences, and then moves on to practical ways to gain exposure to international companies. It also explains how withholding tax on foreign dividends works and how tax treaties help reduce double taxation. You will also learn how currencies influence portfolio performance and how global forces, from the strength of the US dollar to geopolitics, affect financial markets and country-specific risk. The result is a more mature and international approach to portfolio construction, in which currencies, taxation, and market diversification are consciously taken into account.
