Educational Philosophy
Swiss Finance, School of Business capitalizes upon its experienced founders, seasoned faculty, comprehensive curriculum, strong industry connections, and inspired students to create an unparalleled learning environment.
A Truly International Business School by Practitioners and Industry Executives
The tools, techniques and methods we offer in our MBA program are simply not available anywhere else. These range from investment banking risk management modules to country research models developed by faculty after visiting each country. Our internationally-based faculty, entrepreneurial spirit, and devotion to on-the-ground learning allow us to hold rigorous classes focused on the most important aspects of international markets.
Students who are serious about success on a global level must understand capital markets and regional business practices from experience, not theory. The school's ability to facilitate this for students, gives them a distinct advantage over their peers at single-location and mostly narrow-in-scope instructors at almost all other MBA programs.
Students gain a significantly greater level of intellectual sophistication by understanding business transactions in different markets than they would by simply reading about it or trying to learn from those who have not been in the trenches of international business and finance.
Swiss Finance, School of Business strives to stay on the cutting edge of business education innovation by selecting faculty members with international orientation.
Real-World, Applied Curriculum
Swiss Finance, School of Business places paramount importance to practical skills and knowledge for career success. Students learn from case-studies and simulations based on faculty experiences on trading floors, in executive board rooms or start-up work environments. Emphasis is placed upon turning ideas into action.
Our curricula are developed based upon practices of cutting edge hedge funds, private equity shops, and wealth management firms. Swiss Finance education offers students arguably the strongest preparation for careers in entrepreneurial finance.

banking. We believe that students learn by doing. With our unique degree
