LEIF is a high-level, interdisciplinary program, with a strong European and international orientation. The program  conveys a robust and substantial knowledge of the characteristics of financial markets and of their regulation and supervision (including the newest trading systems, and the specifics of the insurance sector), with a clear  focus on global standards and the EU Single Rulebooks. It trains students in the fundamental  instruments for corporate governance for banks and financial institutions, in risk management, business performance analysis, credit rating and rating in trust services.
