Introduction
About
The Master in Wealth Management (MWM) is designed to educate and train future wealth managers. The two-year program combines traditional finance subjects with person-, legal- and tax-centric subjects such as client relationship management, estate planning, ethics, and international taxation.
The Master in Wealth Management was developed together with the Luxembourg financial center, in particular, the Luxembourg Bankers’ Association Private Banking Group Luxembourg (PBGL), and meets the highest international standards. It prepares students for the job market in different wealth management contexts with an emphasis on the Luxembourg financial center.
During their second year, students undertake an internship, concluded by a business case project report, or a Master thesis, giving them the opportunity to take their first steps in the professional world.
