The Finance and Banking Microdegree consists of 4-courses providing a concentrated perspective into the complex field of global finance and banking. It is designed to provide students with skills to develop financial, analytical, and communication techniques to access, make effective financial decisions, and minimize risk.

As part of the strategic realignment of the Swiss Finance Institute, the “CAS in Banking with a focus on Real Estate Finance” course is no longer offered by the SFI. We are pleased that IAZI AG will continue the course in cooperation with Rochester-Bern Executive Programs and the University of Bern from 2021. The aim of the "CAS in Banking with a Focus on Real Estate Finance" is to convey the theoretical basics in the real estate and finance area using practical examples and with a focus on the areas of real estate valuation, real estate portfolio management, and real estate financing. The already qualified and experienced course participants can deepen their knowledge and familiarize themselves with the latest evaluation methods, key figures, or current market trends. Another focus is on the legal and tax aspects of real estate investments.

The Banking & Financial Services Program is a well-rounded curriculum concentrating on the financial services industry, regardless of previous work experience. Some courses include: Money and Financial Markets, Law and Banking, Principles of Bank Operations, Commercial Lending, Investments and Securities and Principles of Insurance.

At IIT, we develop the course material for this qualification. Still, we also deliver the training and support for students to gain the most out of their learning experience, which is why we can also issue our qualifications with CPD as an approved provider.
