FINANCIAL EXPERTISE AND WORKING KNOWLEDGE OF FINANCIAL TOOLS WITH A STRATEGIC VIEW
The MSc enables students to acquire expertise in financial practices and tools from many points of view: macro-economics and geopolitical environment, long-term financial management (financing structures and choices, business valuation, capital market financing, etc.) and asset management/capital-investment skills (financial analysis, financial diagnosis, familiarity with IT tools and financial modeling), with corporate strategy as the centerpiece.
EXTRA-FINANCIAL EXPERTISE THAT GIVES YOU A DIFFERENTIATING ADVANTAGE
