Be a master of wealth management. Enrol in the MSc in Wealth Management
Wealth management is both an art and science. It is about managing investment returns and risks for both individuals and institutional clients. It is about wealth growth, wealth preservation, and wealth transfer.
The MWM programme covers the whole value chain of processes, products and services related to wealth management from a practical perspective. Participants learn about asset management as well as investment advisory. The programme is recognised as a graduate programme associated with the CFA Institute and CAIA. Moreover, the required examinations and competencies for Singapore’s private banking industry has been recently incorporated to empower an individual to be completely “job ready” for this exciting industry.
The curriculum is designed collectively by both academic professors and industry professionals, including private bankers, asset managers, investment analysts and consultants. It is regularly reviewed to reflect industry developments. There is a careful balance between the theory and practice of wealth management.
For the selected group who will undergo this comprehensive programme, we promise an enriching experience. The array of learning activities includes seminars, assignments, projects, field trips, industry talks, case studies and interactions with industry professionals. The overseas segments include a unique experience in eminent universities in Switzerland and USA.
Participants will interact with wealth management professionals from three continents, i.e. Asia, Europe and North America. There will be ample opportunities for exposure and immersion in the real world of global investing.
The MWM programme is the progressive way to stay at the frontier of global investing. Join us if you have the passion for a career in wealth management.
