The ever-changing nature of financial markets and their regulation provides a constant need to keep up-to-date with this area of law. The Diploma in Finance Law provides a comprehensive and in-depth understanding of the regulation of financial and capital markets.

 

Beginning on 6 October 2020, this diploma course will examine the provision of financial services from a national and international perspective.

 

This dynamic area is constantly subject to regulatory and statutory changes at both a European and national level. 

 

The modules in this diploma will consider the current financial services market in Ireland and the regulatory framework in which it operates. Ireland is recognised as a global financial services and technology hub, and the course will examine the use of FinTech and RegTech in the industry. The course also focuses on specific technical and legal aspects, including a review of the underlying principles and characteristics of banking and financial markets, perspectives on corporate finance, and the regulatory issues that relate to domestic and international capital markets. There is also a focus on capital markets, loan financing and corporate governance. 

 

Workshops are a key feature of this course with an emphasis on the application of finance law to common scenarios encountered in practice.
