The world of finance was one of the first to adopt today's advances in technology. On this course, students will master the skills needed to work with complex and dynamic financial markets – utilising integrated financial technology and responding to change at pace. Students will learn to analyse the financial technology (fintech) and innovation sector, explore the digital investment space (including crowd sourcing and crowd funding) and examine new technological disruptions that aim to make financial services more accessible and efficient, personal and secure – including AI, cryptocurrency, cognitive computing, big data and blockchain. Students will become skilled at analysing new data and connectivity, evaluating technological intelligence and managing risks and uncertainty. Classes are designed to simulate a real-life experience of the financial industry. Students will benefit from hands-on training in economics software (with access to Thomson Reuters Eikon Terminals, Bloomberg L.P Terminals, Datastream databases and trading rooms on campus), as well as the chance to collaborate with students from all over the world to gain a global insight. Studying in London, students will have access to financial networks, banking organisations and high-net-worth clients, as well as workshops and industry speakers – exposing them to new insights.
