Enhancing Financial Management Thinking - Nurturing Business Leaders

We are at a time when Mainland China's economy and financial sector are experiencing rapid growth. It has become the world's second largest economy and the driving force of the world economy. While the Mainland China's financial market needs to be more closely aligned with the rest of the world, it also needs to develop its own financial development path. This will put the industry under pressure and will be challenging in various aspects. The financial and business management industry has become increasingly demanding. On the one hand, people in the industry need to have relevant financial and investment management experience and knowledge; on the other hand, they need to have a global perspective and a good understanding of the world's best financial and business management models. At the same time, the market also requires financial and business managers to demonstrate a wide range of competencies.
