[last updated in 6th Jan 2022]
These lecture notes are intended for introductory econometrics course (originally used for new-hire training in the hedge fund that I was working in), suitable for university/grad students, data/quantitative analysts, junior business/economic/financial researchers and etc.

The lectures notes are loosely based on several textbooks:

  1. Introduction to Econometrics, by Christopher Dougherty
  2. Introduction to Econometrics, by James H. Stock and Mark W. Watson
  3. Basic Econometrics, by Damodar N. Gujarati

Prerequisites

Though the lectures are introductory level, it would be ideal that attendants have a slight exposure to probability theory and statistics.

And you would benefit more from the tutorials if you have basic knowledge of:

  • NumPy
  • Matplotlib
  • Pandas
