Market risk analysis (MBFA MENTION)
This program trains professionals in market finance and researchers specialized in this field. It offers specialized teaching in the theoretical and quantitative fields related to products traded on financial markets. In particular, it deals with the determination of risk management through the use of statistical methods.
This course is a continuation of what has been done until the academic year 2020-2021 with developments that allow the integration of changes in the risk analysts' jobs. In particular, it is a question of integrating the regulatory constraints of Basel III in the measurement of market risks (calculation of Value at Risk (VaR), Expected shortfall (ES), and their validation (backtesting). The objective is to provide students with effective tools for measuring and hedging the risks faced by financial institutions (banks and insurance companies). The skills acquired at the end of their training in market risk analysis, students will be able to integrate the risk control departments.

Banking risk analysis (MBFA MENTION)
This program trains banking finance professionals and researchers in this field.
It offers the modern practice of programming associated with statistical methods applied to large financial databases, with the aim of managing banking risks.
This course takes into account the constant evolution of the banking sector, in particular the changes in the banking risk analysts' jobs. Over the last few years, the banking professions have undergone profound changes. This evolution of banking professions and the globalization of operations have generated new risks. Indeed, international operations represent an increasing part of the balance sheet and off-balance sheet activities of credit institutions, while market interventions are diversifying and taking more complex forms. These developments have generated new types of risks and have modified the factors of financial fragility that can affect the quality of the situation of banking players. As a corollary, the banking supervisory authorities have imposed prudential rules in order to avoid the failure of banks. These rules are part of preventive action programs aimed at promoting the stability of domestic banking systems.
This new training offer allows the integration of Basel III regulatory constraints in the measurement of banking risks such as liquidity risk, asset liability management (ALM)...
The objective is to provide students with three types of skills, know-how in the mastery of quantitative methods (econometrics, analysis of large databases ...), in the analysis of risks in particular banking and banking regulation and mastery of computer tools (SAS, R, VBA, Python ....). The courses of this master in quantitative subjects take place in the MUSE Trading Room.
These skills enable students to be equipped with effective tools for measuring the risks faced by financial institutions, allowing them to join risk control departments ....
Strong links have been established for many years with regional and national professionals, such as the regional director of the Ecole Supérieure, the regional delegate of the French Federation of Banks, etc. Numerous interventions by professionals are effective in the Master 2 courses or through the UE of professionalization conferences. These professionals share their professional experiences and explain the jobs they can expect to do after completing the master's degree. Internships are often obtained after these interventions.
Conferences on Big Data, Artificial Intelligence (programming in Python), ..... are organized by Data Scientist specialists.
Students thus benefit from a very good professional training based on solid theoretical knowledge and on professional application by recognized experts in the field through tutored projects or professionalization conferences. This allows a large majority of graduates to find a job within six months of completing their Master 2. The insertion rate is over 77%.

Actuarial Science (MBFA MENTION)
Actuarial Science is part of the Money, Banking, Finance and Insurance program.
This program provides the theoretical and methodological knowledge necessary to pursue a career as an actuary and to prepare future researchers in this field.
- What is an Actuary?
Professional specializing in the application of probability and statistics to insurance, finance and social welfare issues.
To do this, he or she analyzes the financial impact of the risk and estimates the future flows associated with it. The actuary uses mathematical techniques, mainly derived from probability theory and statistics, to describe and model certain future events in a predictive manner, such as, for example, the length of human life, the frequency of claims or the magnitude of the associated financial losses.
