Responsive to trends and issues in global financial services industries, the MSc Finance (Banking pathway) degree aims to equip students with the advanced skills to pursue careers in retail, commercial and private banking as a loan officer, private banker, private wealth consultant or to work within the back and middle offices of an investment bank, in risk management, administrative or support services. It combines a broad range of topics, including finance, economics, quantitative methods and big data analysis.
On successful completion, Finance (Banking) MSc students will receive Associate Chartered Banker status with the Chartered Banker Institute. This is the first step on the ladder for professional recognition as Chartered Banker, the gold standard for professionals working in the banking sector.
Students will study a common first semester providing a solid introduction to financial markets, institutions and intermediaries, and the function of banks in relation to these. This allows them to make a more informed choice about a specialist pathway (in Banking or International Finance) for the second semester, where students delve more into retail and investment banking, choosing options according to personal interests, for example, in banking technology, compliance or behavioural finance.
