Jay See had been working for Credit Suisse in Singapore covering the Greater China desk for 5 years when he was given the opportunity to study the Master of Science in Wealth Management (MWM) degree at SMU. Already an SMU graduate, he jumped at the chance to take the niche finance masters. He explained, “The programme not just allows you to deepen your knowledge of the wealth management industry. It also offers strong career development possibilities.”
The MWM programme was the first Masters in the world to focus on wealth management and has a strong academic pedigree. It was rated first in Asia and third in the world by the Financial Times in its Masters in Finance Post-experience ranking 2017. The Programme allows students to enjoy a tri-continental education experience in Singapore, Switzerland and USA and is delivered in case studies, team activities, market simulations and site visits, as well as traditional classroom learning. Another advantage is the strong links the Programme has with the wealth management industry. Overall, Mr See said that the MWM programme has empowered him with the twin benefits of increased financial knowledge and a larger industry network. He now has greater technical understanding, increasing his ability to serve the burgeoning Greater China market.
