Courses in Banking

The banking sector is the heart of the financial system: it collects savings, finances households and businesses and manages payments. Master's programmes in Banking train professionals able to operate in a context of deep transformation, marked by digitalisation, fintech, new supervisory rules, attention to sustainability and changing customer needs.

The programmes include bank economics and management, credit and creditworthiness assessment, risk management, corporate finance, wealth management and financial advice, banking regulation and Basel, anti-money laundering and compliance, private banking, digital payments, fintech and open banking, sustainable finance and markets. Lessons combine theory, cases, simulations and testimonials from executives of credit institutions and financial companies.

A master's in Banking lets you develop skills in financial analysis, credit assessment, portfolio management, client advice, knowledge of regulatory requirements and the use of digital tools and data analytics. You learn to combine technical skills and interpersonal abilities, essential for building relationships of trust with clients.

Career opportunities include relationship manager, financial advisor, credit analyst, risk manager, compliance officer, wealth manager, private banker, sales manager, corporate finance specialist and fintech analyst. Opportunities exist in banks, financial companies, asset management companies, fintech companies, insurance companies, consulting firms and supervisory authorities. Some activities, such as investment advice, require specific qualifications and registration in professional registers.

Even in a sector that is restructuring, demand for specialist skills in areas such as digital finance, risk management and wealth advisory remains high.

Many programmes offer internships at credit institutions and financial companies, a concrete opportunity to start a professional career.

The path is suitable for graduates in economics, finance, statistics, mathematics and law, but also for young professionals who want to specialise in a specific area of the banking world.
