Location of Glasgow Caledonian University

The global banking industry is currently undergoing a major restructuring and future managers will have to be aware of the importance of the banking industry to the economy, and the financial techniques utilised within the industry. Of critical importance is that future bank managers have holistic knowledge of bank operations. This programme allows you to also develop key skills in understanding and pricing of key financial assets utilised within banking and finance.

In contrast to the MSc Financial Services, Risk and Operations programme and the MSc Banking, Finance and Risk Management programme, this programme will probe more deeply into the qunatitative aspects of finance.

The programme has excellent links with the financial services industry - who contribute to the programme on a regular basis.

The MSc is an ideal stepping stone to gain employment in the area of quantitative finance and banking. Job opportunities in the sector include the more quantitative roles within such departments as credit, market, interest rate and operational risk management as well as opportunities with major financial consultancy companies. Alternately, graduates from the programme may wish to undertake further study to MPhil or PhD level.
