Skewness and Kurtosis | Quantitative Methods in Management

Skewness and Kurtosis: In this topic, learners will learn about the skewness as a measure of asymmetry in a dataset and kurtosis as a measure of the "peakedness" or flatness of a distribution. They will understand different types of skewness—positive, negative, and symmetrical—and their implications in data analysis. They will explore types of kurtosis—leptokurtic, mesokurtic, and platykurtic—and their significance. This topic will also include mathematical formulas for calculating skewness and kurtosis and their practical applications in finance, economics, and risk management. Learners will learn how these concepts help in identifying data trends and anomalies for better decision-making.
