Master Finance — Law and Finance

This master's program in Finance, offered by Université d'Angers in Angers, France, specializes in Law and Finance, a track that combines financial training with the legal frameworks that govern financial activity. Finance studies how capital, investment and risk are managed by individuals, companies and institutions, while the legal dimension of this specialization examines the regulatory and contractual rules that structure financial transactions, markets and institutions. Students in this kind of program typically study corporate finance, financial markets, and financial law, alongside coursework on banking regulation, securities law and the legal aspects of mergers, acquisitions and financing transactions. The combined focus means students are likely to build both quantitative financial analysis skills and a working knowledge of the legal instruments used in financial dealings. Coursework may also address international financial regulation, given how frequently modern finance operates across borders. Graduates from a law and finance specialization commonly pursue careers as financial analysts, legal advisors within financial institutions, compliance officers, or roles that bridge legal and financial functions within banks, investment firms or corporate legal departments. Some continue toward further legal or financial professional qualifications. The program is taught in French, runs for two years, and begins in September, with yearly tuition of 250 EUR. Based in Angers, the program addresses the growing need for professionals who understand both the financial and legal dimensions of transactions in an increasingly regulated financial sector.
