The business school for the financial industry

Press review The European "EDHEC Business School has become a key academic institution for the financial industry, a premier academic centre for applied financial research recognised worldwide. Since the creation of the EDHEC-Risk Institute (ERI) in 2001 – a research centre dedicated to asset and risk management – the school has developed academic or industrial partnerships with large and prestigious financial institutions and innovative educational initiatives for individual and institutional investors. ERI has also created two new international entities. EDHEC Infrastructure, supported by Singapore’s monetary authorities, conducts research on the financing and management of infrastructure investments. Scientific Beta designs alternative indices to traditional market for the world’s largest pension funds and sovereign wealth funds. The combination of academic excellence, whether for research or teaching, and the “EDHEC for Business” model are the main reasons behind the success of EDHEC’s PhD and Master’s in finance programmes.” Copyright The European https://the-european.eu/story-19173/the-business-school-for-the-financial-indus… 2020
