The Vienna Graduate School of Finance draws

with a faculty specializing in various fields of finance, including
asset pricing, corporate finance, financial institutions, risk
management, and market microstructure. Well-established within the
research community, the local faculty not only focuses on questions of

policy-oriented issues and practical applications.
