A 5-star course on the financing solutions at-a-glance. What is more interesting is the combination of videos from the professor as well as actual practising professionals from SocGen.

Good course for an overview on global finance products, especially for people starting of in a banking profile. Quizzes are tough and application oriented, but beyond the material covered in the training at times.

Very complete course which deals with a lot of points. It is also interesting to have so details about key sectors (Real Estate, Aviation). The fact that the cours is online allows us to be a bit ahead and schedule the learning in the best way. And finally the quizzes are the moment when you can go back in the documents and check the answers for the questions you are having a hard time answering. Big thumbs up!

I think this course gives a good overview of the finance market and options especially from a European perspective. It would be helpful for students to have a few numerical and graphical examples and tests aswell to reinforce principles.

No doubt that would put off some people with less ability in maths, but I think it would help to improve the quality of the learning.

The English was sometimes difficult to understand. The grammar in the videos and notes could use a revision. However the course was very interesting and informative.

Large dose of theoretical and practical issues of financing instruments and solutions from corporate banking and project finance. Well presented, interesting and quite innovative examples of banking transactions from various business sectors covering ESG aspects implemented within last years in Europe. Very knowledgeable and higly motivated presenters.

Superb introduction to Financial Markets and key concepts regarding them. Very generous course in its breadth. Some challenging accents, so be prepared! Could do with a little refreshing, as much of the data and examples are from 2015/16, so the effects of the Trump presidency had not yet been felt.
