Program details
Overview
What’s it all about?
Banking is about far more than high-street banks and credit cards. It’s also about investment banking, risk management for financial institutions, derivatives and the effects of monetary policy, as well as how these relate to macroeconomic developments. The specialisation in Banking offers you an ideal balance between the broader area of asset pricing and the narrower area of investment.
It's a unique programme, as very few universities in Europe offer anything similar. This specialised degree, along with the quantitative and decision-making skills you will learn in the programme, will make you stand out amongst your peers in the labour market.
What you’ll actually do:
- learn to make intelligent, well-informed decisions and recommendations about financial structures
- develop an understanding of what distinguishes financial institutions from non-financial corporations
- demonstrate in-depth knowledge of techniques in risk management and derivatives
