The programme is designed for mid-level and senior executives who have had very little exposure to the Finance function, but who are likely to assume P&L responsibility in the near future.

The programme will cover various topics in the field of Financial Accounting, Managerial Accounting, Management Control Systems, Financial Markets and Corporate Finance taking a top-down perspective. The programme also has a strategic management module to provide broader perspective on the business context and commercial negotiations to build commercial skills.
