MASTER - BANKING AND FINANCE LAW

The aim of the Master's program is to train lawyers who combine a mastery of the fundamentals of French, European and international business law, with an in-depth knowledge of the rules applicable to the banking and financial sectors, in order to facilitate their integration into the world of work. The program offers a wide range of career opportunities.

In addition to traditional training in private law, particularly business law, students specialize in banking and finance law.

In this respect, by the end of the Master 2, students will have in-depth knowledge of the organization of the banking profession and financial law professions, the workings of national and European supervisory authorities, and the regulations applicable to the many activities that can be carried out in this sector, by lawyers from banks or other companies as well as by lawyers (retail banking, investment banking, asset management, listed company transactions, project financing, banking and financial regulation, etc.).

The course also includes several hours of instruction in English, to perfect understanding and expression in both banking and financial law, as the work environment often has a marked international dimension. English language courses (20 hours) and law courses in English (over 40 hours) are provided, which is an asset when it comes to accessing job opportunities in France and abroad.

Students are also introduced to accountancy by a chartered accountant, helping them to gain a better understanding of corporate financing and financial reporting issues.

Last but not least, they develop their legal research skills and enhance their professional experience, as Master 2 students are required to write a dissertation and complete an internship or work-study program.
