This module introduces students to the core concepts, structures, and stakeholders of the modern financial services industry. It explores the roles and functions of financial intermediaries and examines how individuals, companies, and markets are affected by them.

 

In addition to providing a bird’s-eye view of the financial industry, the module focuses on the perspective of capital providers and investors, which is increasingly relevant for both individuals and corporations. Students are introduced to financial markets, asset classes, and a variety of financial instruments, building a basic toolkit that enables them to navigate the broad spectrum of investment opportunities.

 

A central component of the module is an investment simulation, where students apply their theoretical knowledge in a realistic, practice-oriented setting. This hands-on experience allows participants to deepen their understanding of investment principles, make their first simulated investment decisions, and critically reflect on the outcomes. By combining theory, market insights, and applied training, the module prepares students to engage more confidently with the world of finance and investing.
