This program aims to prepare professionals for careers in quantitative investment management, financial risk management, portfolio management, financial software & systems, financial consulting services, etc. Even experienced risk management professionals who have the theoretical background of the risk management models, find their skills to be inadequate when it comes to implementing the models.
