MA/MS in Finance

The MSc allows specialisation in corporate finance and asset management, among other finance-related areas of work, taught within an international cohort of students and faculty. Coursework in corporate finance covers where a company's value originates and how various factors affect its financial position, while the asset-management strand examines how shifts in the trade-off between risk and return affect the weighting of a portfolio. Digital competencies form part of the training, extending beyond Excel and programming into working with financial data, including use of a Bloomberg terminal room, and the programme is part of the CFA Institute's University Affiliation Programme. The stated aim is to equip students to identify underlying economic issues within the financial industry and propose solutions to them.
