The Master in « Financial Markets and Risk Evaluation » (FiRE) is a full time programme entirely taught in English. Theoretical insights are all the more needed as many episodes such as the great financial crisis of 2008 or the run on Silicon Valley Bank in 2023 regularly show that blind applications of valuation and risk management models could prove unproductive. These theoretical insights are acquired by students with the instruction offered by world-class academics who have contributed to build them. Practical insights are also offered to ensure that students are accustomed to the functioning and vocabulary of financial markets, the strategies of investors and the pricing of financial assets, with a particular emphasis on risk measurement and evaluation.
