The MSc in Finance, Risk and Markets at ICN Business School is a Master’s-level degree (Bac+5) dedicated to an in-depth understanding of financial markets, risk management and the mechanisms of market finance.
The programme trains specialists able to operate in demanding, regulated and international financial environments, particularly in investment banking, asset management and risk control.
This MSc is part of ICN Business School’s broader portfolio of more than eight specialised Master’s programmes and is based on a teaching approach combining academic learning, professional applications and quantitative tools used in banking and finance.
I collaborate with many well-known brands such as Club Med. During my studies at ICN Business School, I developed skills that enable me to lead a team, and I acquired rigour and organisational abilities that allow me to stand out in a fast-paced environment where efficiency is essential. The school also helped me secure valuable internships and a work-study placement in this sector during my final year.
