Our MS in Global Finance (MSGF) Program, a joint partnership program between the HKUST Business School and the NYU Stern School of Business, showcased its global expertise and provided abundant opportunities for industry engagement throughout the region in May.

Singapore Finance Seminar

The MSGF Program and CFA Singapore co-hosted a finance seminar on valuation. In his captivating presentation, Prof. Kasper Meisner NIELSEN used the high-profile Twitter acquisition case to illustrate various valuation tools and techniques. He also provided insights into the practical challenges that arise during the valuation process.

Our alumni enjoyed a wonderful dinner in Singapore in the same evening. It was a delightful opportunity for our graduates to share updates on their professional and personal endeavors, celebrate their accomplishments, and exchange insights on the evolving finance landscape. It was a truly memorable evening that underscored the strong sense of community fostered within the MSGF alumni network.

Japanese Investment Conference

The MSGF Program sponsored the Japanese Investment Conference 2024 (JIC 2024), which took place at the Tokyo Convention Hall. The conference is the CFA Society Japan’s annual flagship event.

Themed “Unlocking the Potential of AI”, JIC 2024 showcased the latest trends in applying AI to asset management. The conference invited practitioners and experts from Japan and overseas to discuss the background and implications of AI developments for the asset management industry.
