About this course

Finance, investment, and risk sits at the core of how capital markets function and how organisations manage the uncertainty that is inseparable from economic activity. Finance covers the principles by which firms and individuals raise, allocate, and value capital. Investment examines how assets are analysed, portfolios are constructed, and market behaviour is interpreted. Risk management addresses the identification, measurement, and mitigation of financial and operational risks, which is an increasingly central concern for banks, insurance companies, and corporate treasuries alike. At Glasgow Caledonian University, this four-year full-time programme develops in-demand skills and expertise across finance and financial services. You will study how finance affects local and global economies, and how financial decisions impact every aspect of commercial and social life. The programme cover
