COURSE CURRICULUM

The LLM in Financial and Corporate Law curriculum provides advanced legal knowledge and specialised expertise in financial and corporate regulation. The compulsory modules establish a strong academic and professional foundation, beginning with Advanced Legal Systems, which explores complex legal frameworks and comparative approaches. Advanced Company Law examines corporate structures, governance, and directors’ duties, while Banking and Financial Services Regulation focuses on the regulatory environment governing financial institutions and markets. The Law of International Financial Transactions addresses cross-border financial dealings and the legal principles underpinning global commerce. The program culminates in a Dissertation, allowing students to undertake independent research on a contemporary issue within financial or corporate law, demonstrating analytical depth and critical evaluation. Students can further tailor their studies through optional modules such as International Commercial Arbitration and International Commercial Mediation, which explore alternative dispute resolution mechanisms. Additional options include Transnational Regulation of Terrorism and Counter-Terrorism, EU Economic and Financial Governance, International Corporate Governance, Commercial and Investment Contracts, and Artificial Intelligence: Law and Ethics. Overall, the curriculum combines rigorous legal analysis with practical relevance, equipping graduates with the expertise required to navigate complex financial and corporate legal environments in both domestic and international contexts.
