If you want to get into the finance world, you should study at Swiss Finance.

If you want to simply know the facts of finance, you should read one of the countless books written on the subject, but if you want to get into the world, you should study at Swiss Finance. The insights I gained here, not only the facts and terminology, but getting to know what the people who work in Wall Street are like and also what those who want to work in Wall Street are like. What kind of personality does it take to work hard till four in the morning and be invigorated by doing so? I discovered I have so much in common with these people, that at heart I am one of them. My experiences here have been quite amazing.

Notes from the participant's academic and career journal at Swiss Finance:

Finance theory was one of the major topics of the day and I was not prepared. I always assumed I’d get into finance. It had been my chosen career path for as long as I can remember, but today I woke up to my passion for it all. The lessons were inspiring. I not only feel that I now understand the workings of finance theory, but I feel like I can touch the inner mechanisms and the way it all comes together, and once I can touch it I can manipulate it and work with it. I’ve never taken a class before that put me in such close contact with the subject. I can’t wait to see what is in store for us tomorrow.
Regards,
Matthew
