This two-year M.A. program teaches quantitative methods used in financial analysis with a focus on asset and risk management. By training students for banking, insurance and other financial services industries, the program aims to produce professionals ready to contribute to the stabilizing and integrating of European capital markets. Toward achieving that objective, the program emphasizes an application of theoretical knowledge on specific real-life problems.
Studies culminate with a presentation and defense of a master’s thesis prepared under the supervision of an advisor, and an oral examination in four sections: Fundamentals of Mathematics and Finance and Financial Econometrics (study Modules 1 and 2); Asset Management (Modules 3 and 5); Risk Management (Module 4); ALM and RM for Banks, and ALM and RM for Insurance/Pension Funds (Modules 7 or 8).
Students spend one semester of the program, typically the third, at a partner university of their choice. The aim is to immerse students in the financial sectors of two countries; this experience further enhances their ability to successfully contribute to the management of risk and assets in globalizing economies.
