About This Course

 

Since the ’80s, banks have become huge financial supermarkets offering a wide range of different services and products. Employees in these large banks have specialized expertise in the area they make a career. Also, the fast developments in information technology have resulted in large IT departments staffed by people without financial and banking knowledge.

Banks are key players on financial markets. The financial crisis of 2008 was a turning point in the way financial products are traded on the Financial Markets. What happened? Why and how do financial markets influence our daily lives? 

There are no prerequisites for taking this course and you do not need to have an economic background to do this training. This training is for professionals that work in the financial sector and want to know more about financial markets.

After this course you will have an overview of the financial markets landscape. You will understand financial products and why they are used. Your new financial expertise can support your career progress in the finance industry.
