About this Event
Why do smart people make dumb financial choices? This lecture explores the surprising link between our psychology and money mistakes. We will see how fear, overconfidence, and even our desire to be liked can cloud our judgment, especially when dealing with financial "experts." Learn how these psychological blind spots worsen conflicts of interest, and how to make smarter financial decisions, free from emotional influence.
A lecture by Professor Raghavendra Rau
