What Are Financial Forensics?

The major of finance is the study of economic activities that integrate currency and monetary funds. The disciplines that specifically study how individuals, institutions, and governments acquire, spend, and manage funds and other financial assets are differentiated from economics.

Finance major

China's financial science refers to two parts. The first part refers to money and banking. It existed during the planned economy period and was the main content of finance at that time. For example, the People's Bank of China said that they are engaged in finance, meaning currency banking; the second part refers to international finance, which deals with issues such as balance of payments and exchange rates. Taken together, these two parts are referred to as finance in China. The undergraduate course of Chinese finance major seems to be more oriented towards economics than orthodox finance. Its core disciplines are macroeconomics, monetary banking, and international finance. It mainly studies the basic theories and basic knowledge of monetary banking and international finance. And they all belong to the economics category, money and banking science belongs to monetary economics and international finance belongs to international economics. Therefore, China's financial undergraduate education is a cross-application discipline of economics and finance.

However, the above two parts are not called finance (financial) in foreign countries, and the finance called abroad includes the following two parts. The first part is corporate finance, which is called corporate finance under the planned economy. When it comes to corporate finance, its actual content goes far beyond finance and includes two aspects. The first is corporate financing, including equity / debt structure, mergers and acquisitions, etc., which are not available under the planned economy; the second is corporate governance issues, such as organizational structure and incentive mechanisms.

Master of Finance: Usually a two-year program, which is located under the school's business school or management school. Its main courses focus on the financial field and train finance professionals. Of the top 50 schools in the United States, only about 10 have MSF majors.

Financial direction under MBA: American university MBA is usually divided into different directions, finance is one of its main directions. Its curriculum is mainly financial, but it also covers other business and management fields. Applicants' work experience is usually valued.

Financial Engineering: It is the most professional of the masters of finance in the United States. It is a discipline formed by the cross-penetration of finance, mathematics, and engineering. There are usually certain requirements for the professional background of the applicant, but this has also become one of the best choices for many other professional students (such as mathematics, computer, etc.) who want to transfer to finance.

Other Masters of Finance: In addition to the above three majors, the Masters of Finance in American universities also includes financial analysis, international finance, applied finance, and financial management. The courses of these majors are mainly finance, but they all have different focuses.

Finance and finance are the products of modern economy. In ancient times, it was mainly farming and agricultural economy, mainly barter and simple currency circulation. Finance and finance did not exist at all. For example, in China, some financial theory views are scattered in various classics discussing the issue of "goods". As an independent discipline, it was first formed in the West and is called "currency and banking". Finance in modern China was introduced from the West, and there are various theories of money and banking from classical economics to modern economics.

After the late 1950s, the name "Monetary Credit" was gradually widely adopted. At this time, I began to pay attention to a comprehensive analysis of financial issues under the two social systems of capitalism and socialism, and put forward some theoretical issues to discuss in accordance with China's actual situation, such as: the nature of the yuan, the issue of currency circulation, socialist banks Issues such as fiscal revenues and expenditures, credit revenues and expenditures, and the balance between supply and demand of materials. However, in general, finance has not received much attention during this period.

Since the end of the 1970s, China s financial construction has entered a new stage. On the one hand, it has re-researched and clarified Marxist financial doctrine in combination with reality, and on the other hand, it has reversed the tendency to completely reject western contemporary financial science. Research and evaluation of them; at the same time, with the increasing role of financial activities in economic life, the financial discipline has received extensive attention; this has created favorable conditions for the rapid development of finance with China's actual background.

The content of financial studies is extremely rich. It is not limited to the study of financial theory, but also includes the history of finance, the history of financial doctrine, the contemporary financial doctrines of Eastern and Western factions, and the separate and comparative study of the financial systems and financial policies of various countries. Within the scope of the study.

The main research topics in financial theory are: the nature and function of money and its status and role in the economy; the forms of credit, the functions of banks and their status and role in the economy; the nature and role of interest; in modern banking The characteristics and rules of currency circulation organized on the basis of credit; the theory of macroeconomic control of economic life through currency, etc.

Finance majors mainly use computers to implement mathematical models to solve financial-related problems. Therefore, the finance major is different from the MBA and MSP. It is mainly to train technical workers in the financial industry, also known as financial professionals-Quant. Quant's positions are concentrated in investment banks, hedge funds, commercial banks and financial institutions. The main tasks responsible are also very different according to their positions. The more representative ones include pricing, model validation, research, develop and risk management. They are responsible for the establishment and application of derivative pricing models, model verification, model research, program development, and risk. management. In general, work is relatively hard, and income is much higher than in other industries. Take Quant Developer as an example. Although there is no essential difference between actual work and programmers in other industries, not only is the income high, but it is easy to find a job.

For now, the employment of finance majors in China is mainly in the following areas:

Fund companies: Fund companies now need talents who can do fund performance evaluation, risk control, and asset allocation.

Securities companies: Securities companies are now in a difficult period, while also seeking opportunities for survival through the collection of reasonable wealth product design.

Banks: The most traditional banks are also undergoing subtle changes. Now the head banks of major banks are working on establishing internal risk management models and urgently need talents in this area. However, because the bank's employment system is relatively rigid, truly capable people may not be able to go in and do this. Another important department within the bank, the Treasury Department, also needs financial professionals. On the one hand, they operate in the interbank bond market, which is the main force of the future fixed income securities, and also the corporate bond market with great room for development in the future. The main force in the design of financial professional products, mortgage-backed bonds.
