Bachelor in Banking and Insurance

Banking and insurance studies the operations, regulation, and risk management practices of financial institutions that provide banking services and insurance coverage. Students study banking operations, insurance principles, financial risk management, and the regulatory frameworks that govern financial institutions, developing an understanding of how banks and insurers manage capital, assess risk, and serve customers. Coursework typically covers credit analysis, insurance underwriting, financial markets, and actuarial concepts, alongside broader business and finance courses in accounting, economics, and management. As students progress, the program often introduces more specialized topics such as risk assessment, financial institutions management, or insurance product design, connecting theoretical finance concepts to the practical operations of banks and insurance companies. Graduates pursue careers in commercial banks, insurance companies, financial regulatory bodies, and risk management departments, along with further graduate study in finance, banking, or insurance and risk management.
