TOP REVIEWS FROM SECURING INVESTMENT RETURNS IN THE LONG RUN
Very well taught course giving an overview of the fundamentals of sustainable investing both from an individual point of view, and when advising clients.
An excellent insight offered from the teaching team on the real world of portfolio management and how best to sustain investment returns over a long time horizon
As with the earlier courses, the content was comprehensive and presented in a very engaging style. Each and every faculty member stands out in her/his own way and Prof. Michel Girardin is THE BEST!
Fantastic! Greatly enjoyed the course, especially the module on "Assessing Performance". And of course Michel's animals!
