Finance

What determines stock prices? What’s the best way to finance a particular company? And how can the financial markets and financial regulations help a society as a whole to prosper? Today’s business environment calls for clear financial insight and assured decision-making. Effective capital investments and financing are the lifeblood of every organization. This top-ranked Finance Master’s programme explores these questions through real-life business cases, many of which are led by people who work in the financial industry themselves. The Master equips you with the comprehensive knowledge and thorough understanding you need to manage the flow of funds, from raising and investing capital to accurate and efficient financial reporting. You’ll look at the macro-level of financial economics: how financial markets help maximise economic growth. You’ll also look at the inner workings of financial markets and corporations – and how financial regulation is the bridge between these two sides. The MSc Finance contains six different tracks: * Climate Finance * Finance * Financial Management * Duisenberg Honours Programme in Quantitative Finance * Duisenberg Honours Programme in Finance and Technology * Duisenberg Honours Programme in Corporate Finance
