The course teaches you the different regulations in the financial system. We first go into detail on the main current banking standards: the Basel standards. Within the standards, we will look at credit, market and operational risks measures. We shall see how they impact the commercial or risk policy of a bank, alongside its impact on the day-to-day work of front officers, such as the loan officer. We then consider the financial market to understand the main regulation: MIFID.
