For the 2026-2027 academic year, the M2 will retain its current format and title, “Wealth Management and Professional Wealth.” Discover the M2 program
The Master’s in Wealth Management provides students with all the knowledge and techniques necessary for wealth management consulting. These include asset and financial product management (stocks, mutual funds, banking and insurance products, life insurance, real estate, etc.), as well as legal and tax management of wealth.
In the first year, particular attention is paid to the commercial aspect: customer interviews and negotiations.
In the second year, the program offers a specialization in business transfer operations, highlighting the link between private and professional wealth.
The M1 and M2 are available as work-study programs and continuing education courses. Obtaining the master’s degree confers CJA accreditation and satisfies the professional requirements for working as an insurance broker, banking and payment services broker, financial investment advisor and crowdfunding advisor. In addition, the master’s degree prepares students for the AMF exam. An exam session is organized each year for our students.
