MSc in Finance & Risk Management

The MSc in Finance and Risk Management is a specialist degree from LSBF that builds the skills students need to manage and evaluate the financial and non-financial risks facing global organisations.

The programme will examine the implications of risk assessment, financial planning, and decision-making, giving graduates a competitive advantage in today's fast-moving global economy. There is a large and rapidly growing demand for suitably trained graduates in financial risk management and this programme is carefully structured to provide students with the specialised knowledge they need for this challenging profession.

The MSc in Finance and Risk Management is designed for students whose career ambitions are based on obtaining high-level roles in such roles as Business Assurance Officers, Monitoring Officers, and Compliance Consultants. Focussing on the core concepts of financial research, insurance, and credit risk analysis, the programme offers a blend of theory and practical skills preparing students for success in the workplace in both the private and public sectors.

The programme provides a comprehensive examination of corporate and international finance and in term two, concentrates on risk management and crisis management, focussing on both theoretical concepts and practical business continuity methods.
