      Institute for Finance

      Everything that counts

      The Institute for Finance IFF bundles the research and continuing education activities of the School of Business in the field of financial management. Two areas of competence cover key aspects of corporate financial management: Auditing, Accounting and Controlling plus Banking and Finance We deal with everything that counts.

      We work with our partners from industry and public administrations to generate new knowledge. Our research addresses market needs and is always applied to practice in its focus and goals. Our portfolio of continuing education products is state of the art. A solid basis is provided, current developments are factored in, and foreseeable trends are taken into consideration. This is carried out in a variety of formats: from conferences and one-day seminars, to certificate courses (CAS) and master’s programmes (MAS). In this way continuing education creates value.

      Competence Centers

      Further information

      Auditing, Accounting and Controlling

      Financial reporting is the centrepiece of companies and the basis for economic decisions. We have been teaching, researching and consulting for years in these areas. In company valuation, these issues are condensed. We develop valuation models supported by theory that set standards for practice.

      Banking & Finance

      It’s all change, also in the finance industry. Digitalisation, big data, etc. are having a radical impact on the banking services of the future. The banking secrecy case and increasing regulatory requirements are also contributing to structural change in the Swiss financial centre. We teach and advise in the field of banking and finance, with a particular focus on risk management, and conduct both theoretical and empirical research on current questions from the banking and finance field.

      We were commissioned by the Swiss Leasing Association to carry out a study on the significance of leasing in Switzerland. In collaboration with BAK-Basel we conducted a major empirical study, investigating the experiences of Swiss businesses with leasing. It was shown how the Swiss economy would benefit from the positive effects of an increase in the leasing rate.
