The Risk and Return program has been developed by The Open University Business School.
Are you looking to take on financial management responsibilities within your organisation? Develop your theoretical understanding and improve the applied and critical skills needed to succeed in your role.
On this program, you will cover topics such as analysing the return on investments and understanding the effect of real and inflation rates in investment. You will learn about the relationship between risk and return and their importance to investing and capital budgeting. You will also examine financial statements and corporate decision making.

I am a Chartered Accountant who, before moving into teaching, worked in the real estate investment and development sector. I have also been a director on a number of investment funds.
