EDHEC-Risk Executive Education
The executive education seminars offered by EDHEC-Risk Institute help professionals to upgrade their skills with advanced asset allocation and risk management training across traditional and alternative classes.

Building on the latest research advances engineered by EDHEC-Risk Institute, we offer a range of executive courses in investment management and joint seminars with CFA Institute.
EDHEC Business School believes that academic research has a vital role to play in promoting innovation and constantly raising professional standards and has spelled out its educational credo as ‘professional development through research-based excellence.’ The PhD in Finance it has organised in conjunction with EDHEC-Risk Institute is the culmination of this ambition. The purpose of the PhD in Finance at EDHEC Business School is to help outstanding individuals become autonomous researchers and lifelong innovators by enabling them to develop the scientific background and skills required to define, conduct and complete research projects that advance knowledge and practices in the financial industry. This unique programme offers both a residential track for high-potential graduate students who will hold part-time research or teaching positions at EDHEC Business School, and an executive track for high-level practitioners in full-time jobs. The programme is taught by an exceptional team of international scholars who not only hold prestigious qualifications, distinctions and appointments but have also made significant contributions to the field of financial economics through research, consulting, and executive education.
The EDHEC-Risk Institute investment management series seminars bring research advances and state-of-the-art practices into the practitioner’s portfolio of skills. Designed and delivered by some of the most respected practitioners and academics in the area, our executive courses provide participants with a workable knowledge of the techniques that any investment professional should adopt. Presented in a highly accessible manner and drawing upon the latest research results, these executive courses appeal to senior officers, investment specialists and administrators working for buy- and sell-side institutions, and to consultants and key account representatives advising high net worth individuals and institutional investors.

EDHEC-Risk Institute is registered with CFA Institute as an Approved Provider of the Continuing Education Programme. Furthermore, its Advances in Asset Allocation seminar is jointly organised with CFA Institute.
