The current international situation and the challenges on international investments that individuals and companies are facing, require financial managers more than ever to think in complex contexts in order to be able to leverage new potential for investment management, especially in the asset management domain and in all related tasks.

This course provides students with skills and knowledge in organizing multi-disciplinary teams to achieve successful project outcomes and tackle these challenges effectively.
