A specialist masters degree course, designed for accountants in industry and commerce who want to broaden their perspectives by adding international accounting and finance knowledge and wider management skills.

The MSc course starts with a one-year module on management that reflects a wide range of contemporary practices and challenges. Then there are two modules, one developing the management theme with a module on strategy, and the other the finance theme with a module on financial strategy. The programme culminates with studies of financial and investment decision-making in an international context, and of international financial reporting and international capital markets. Its approach is analytical rather than computational.

The programme is intended to build competencies to equip people working in the finance and financial reporting functions of companies to perform senior management roles in an international context. The degree course assumes basic accounting and financial reporting knowledge and its unique selling points are management, strategic finance and reporting to the international capital markets.

The Open University Business School is accredited internationally by the European Foundation for Management Development, through its EQUIS programme; and by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB).
