In this Masters programme, skills are developed through creating a broader understanding of financial firm risk-taking, accountability and governance. The emphasis is on a deep analysis of mainstream and critical authorship. We will challenge current and past thinking on the role of financial institutions and markets. The programme particularly encourages you to examine regulatory structures and concepts in the context of recent and past financial crises.
You will build the skills and knowledge needed to gain an understanding of financial reform processes and their consequences for markets around the world. Rigorous classroom teaching coupled with extensive reading will provide you with a sound theoretical basis. An understanding of substantive legal issues is also developed.
You are normally required to have a good first or second class honours degree (or equivalent from a university outside the UK). 7.0 overall with no element less than 6.0 (or equivalent).
