Are you crazy about figures? Do you want to learn to analyse and interpret the market position of organisations? Do you want to know all there is to know about how an organisation can remain financially healthy? Then choose a Bachelor's or Master's programme in financial reporting at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam.
Do you enjoy getting to know the entrepreneur behind a scale-up? Are you fascinated by the success stories on social media about young entrepreneurs? Do you want to know their financial story? If you choose a Master's in financial reporting at VU Amsterdam, you will learn to draw up financial reports and navigate the systems used in financial recordkeeping and will dive into the fascinating world of entrepreneurship.
Every organisation is required to produce financial reports, but the crux lies in using the right resources for the maximum result. It's about leadership, daring to take decisions and having the guts to postpone an IPO, for example. Within an organisation, decisions are based on the interpretation of financial results. If, as a financial advisor, you can assist in decision making by explaining why investing is the right thing to do, or why it's best to wait a little longer, then you will be a strong player in this field. If you choose financial reporting, you will observe up close how an organisation is performing and where the opportunities and challenges lie. You will learn about business processes, identify bottlenecks, observe how people work together and see what they need to achieve the best results.
You will dive right in and make financial forecasts, analyses and overviews and will learn how to use financial dashboards. You will get to unravel the secrets of the top 10 best performing organisations and, of course, you will follow the international financial markets closely. After completing the programme, you can work with all kinds of organisations. Whether you choose to work with a start-up, a sole proprietorship or a multinational—it’s all possible. Studying financial reporting at VU Amsterdam gives you a solid foundation for an outstanding career.
