Last month, classrooms at LSBF’s London City Campus were converted into a trading floor as students in the GGSB MSc in Finance programme took part in the Trading & Financial Market Analysis week 2014, a practical experience in trading and risk management.
During the programme, each student had personal use of their own trading desk. As live audio feeds were delivered from Amplify trading floors, students were able to engage in discussions and analyses with leading industry professionals. Over the course of the programme, students went through several steps of development, including initial market analysis, classes in theory, experience-building, multi-asset class exposure and career development. They also gained practical knowledge in areas such as equities, foreign exchange, commodities, fixed income and multi-asset trading.
The programme was delivered in partnership with Amplify Trading Ltd, in line with LSBF’s ethos to provide practical and industry-relevant skills alongside academic economic understanding.
The video shows some of the participants explaining what their learned during the programme and how these newly-acquired skills will help their careers.
