MSc Banque et gestion de patrimoine
Programme overview
The MSc in banking and wealth management equips students with a solid understanding of how banks operate around the world and teaches them about the many aspects of operational, credit, and liquidity risk management within a complex environment where the client and profitability are the top priorities.
The sector has seen the emergence of new players (Fintechs, blockchain), who are sometimes in competition with traditional banks. The programme therefore explores the impact of digital technology and innovation on banking.
The programme also covers wealth management which involves far more than simply giving financial advice: a wealth manager plans and structures their clients' wealth in order to help them protect and grow it in a way that is tax-efficient and in accordance with their wishes.
