The pillar of the finance department
Corporate finance provides training for the professions that ensure the sound financial health of organisations. The courses offered at INSEEC provide solid expertise in financial analysis, risk management and financing.
Financial analysis involves assessing a company’s solvency and profitability on the basis of its accounting documents. It lies at the heart of the tasks entrusted to finance teams, who are responsible for strategic decisions and investment projects.

It’s a demanding but buoyant sector, attracting large numbers of students every year who want to manage strategic responsibilities.

A genuine bridge between financial expertise and practical projects, the specialisation opens the door to a wide range of careers: asset manager, property analyst, financial adviser, asset manager, etc. There are so many possible positions in a sector that is constantly evolving.
