    Welcome to the School of Financial Management

    Financial business markets are entirely globalized, national markets do not exist any longer. The Dutch economy is an open economy and is strongly dependent on international trade and business activities. Businesses therefore, require financial students to be receptive to knowledge on international issues.

    We aim to prepare students for a financial business career. The international focus is strong, because international perspective and awareness in business approach is a must.

    Our mission: "Active and employable citizens in society"
