Introduction

The MSc in Asset Management is a niche programme designed to equip future asset managers with a fundamental, yet critical, understanding of existing markets, market developments, and investment opportunities and their risks.
Since the past decades witnessed an increasing attention for non-standard asset classes as part of financial portfolios, the MSc in Asset Management programme will instil students with a profound insight into alternative investments, as well as fixed income investments and portfolio allocation with a strong foundation in econometrics. The faculty will particularly explore market regulation, trading on markets, pricing, investment opportunities and pitfalls, and common risk measures and portfolio management techniques. Some attention will be given to hedge funds and understanding how to hedge appropriate exposures to risk when allocating portfolios. Students will emerge from the MSc in Asset Management programme with varied career possibilities, both in strategic and tactical asset allocation.
