Master of Science in Wealth Management (MSc in WM)

The Master of Science in Wealth Management (MSc in WM) is a flagship programme of the WMI developed in close collaboration with the Singapore Management University (SMU) and the Swiss Finance Institute. The degree will be awarded by SMU. The programme is tailored to meet the educational needs of post-graduate students wanting to work in the wealth management industry and existing wealth management practitioners who would like to enhance their academic and professional credentials.

The programme emcompasses asset management as well as private banking. Students will learn the technology that underpins the products used in these two businesses. They will also analyze and discuss the process of investment management, security analysis, portfolio diversification, valuation and risk management. Those wanting to specialise in asset management/product development will deepen their technical knowledge of financial products, while others wanting to specialise in the client relationship aspect of private banking will find courses on topics such as financial and tax planning, life cycle wealth management and managing client relationships very relevant.

Scholarship

A number of corporations have scholarships available for their own staff. This includes the Government of Singapore Corporation (GIC) and Temasek Holdings. Potential candidates of these companies should check with their HR Departments.

The Master of Science in Wealth Management programme is one of the approved programmes under FSP supported by the Financial Sector Development Fund (FSDF). The Finance Scholarship Programme (FSP) administered by the Monetary Authority of Singapore was designed to groom a critical mass of specialists in targeted fields such as risk management, quantitative finance and finance.
