Relation to other Modules in the Course

All modules and courses in the IFM program build on one another in the course of the study, therefore this module is related to most preceding modules. In order to successfully participate in subsequent lectures, the knowledge and skills of preceding as well as parallel lectures of all financial areas are necessary. This interdisciplinary and holistic approach aims to prepare students to navigate the increasing complexity of the finance sector and develop appropriate decision-making skills.
