Concept
As we know
“Finance” a field of study and an area of
business, definitely has strong roots in
other scientific fields
Furthermore, many modern financial
theories resemble scientific
nomenclature. However, there is no
denying the fact that the financial
industry also includes non-scientific
elements that liken it to an art.
It has been discovered that human
emotions (and decisions made because
of them) play a large role in many
aspects of the financial world
Is finance science?
 Modern financial theories, such as
the Black Scholes model, draw heavily
on the laws of statistics and mathematics
found in science. Their very creation
would have been impossible if science
hadn't laid the initial groundwork.
 Theoretical constructs such as the
CAPM and EMH attempt to logically
explain the behavior of the stock market
in an emotionless, completely rational
manner, wholly ignoring elements such
as market sentiment and investor
emotions.
Is finance an art?
History is ripe with examples that seem to
contradict the idea that finance is a science.
For example, stock market crashes that
spurred the Great Depression are not
suitably explained by scientific theories such
as the EMH
Also Investor sentiment appears to be
mildly influenced by weather, with the overall
market generally becoming more bullish
when the weather is predominately sunny.
Other phenomena include the January
effect, which exposes the pattern of stock
prices falling near the end of the calendar
year and rising at the beginning of the next.
Conclusion
In a financial process acquisition of
funds can be categories as science and
allocation of funds is an art. Further more
In every field of life finance like a blood
and without it all fields of life are dead
body.
The debate continues as to whether
the field of finance is more accurately
characterized as an art or a science -
more than likely, it's a little bit of “both
