Understand the theory – the big-picture perspective – behind finance and economics.
In this program, you’ll learn how financial markets and economies work, and how economic policies impact people, businesses and governments. You’ll apply statistical and mathematical methods to analyze financial data and test financial theories. And you’ll leave King’s with deep insights into economic theory and practical financial strategies.
You can take your cutting-edge skills and knowledge from Financial Economics into lucrative careers that involve economic analysis, investment, or policymaking. This program is also affiliated with the CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst) designation – a globally recognized professional designation in the finance world.
Financial Economics is part of King’s unique School of Management, Economics and Mathematics (MEM), and you'll learn in close connection with faculty and peers across related disciplines, including BMOS, Mathematics and Statistics, and Analytics & Decision Sciences (ADS). This integrated environment encourages you to explore questions from multiple perspectives and equips you to combine theory with tools from quantitative analysis and strategic decision-making.
