About this Event

IE Master in Finance Open Day | Investing in Uncertain Times: Global Trends Shaping Markets 

Join this Open Day to discover how the IE Master in Finance prepares you to build an international career in today’s fast-changing financial landscape. 

At IE, learning goes beyond the classroom. Through a hands on approach, an international environment and strong industry connections, students develop the strategic mindset, adaptability and analytical skills needed to thrive in global finance. 

During this Open Day, you will learn more about the program, discover what the student experience at IE is really like and hear directly from current students and alumni about their academic and professional journeys. 

The event will also feature an exclusive masterclass by Salena Lee, Senior director for Real Estate Investment Banking at JLL and Professor at IE University: 

“Investing in Uncertain Times: Global Trends Shaping Markets” 

On July 15th, Warren Buffet said in an interview, “It’s tough to find values when everybody is preferring gambling.” The post-Covid market is defying the logic of Finance 101, with the catapulting rise of retail trading, the greatest technological revolution in at least 25 years, geopolitical volatility, and the rewriting of the old macro-political order in the world’s largest economy and stock market causing even seasoned deployers of capital to scratch their heads. How can we sort through the chaos to coolly map the path of our portfolios over the next years or potentially even decades? Investing in Uncertain Times is a Masterclass designed to explore and create structure around the many paradigm-shifts we’re witnessing today. 

After the session, there will be a networking cocktail where you will have the opportunity to connect with students, alumni and members of the IE community. 

Places are limited, so make sure to register!
