ESAMI… • Sessione giugno-luglio: se non superate una sola parte del programma, potete tornare all’appello dopo, portando con voi il voto conquistato sull’altra parte (non oltre il 3° appello di luglio). • Dalla sessione di settembre in poi potete sostenere un esame di tipo tradizionale su tutto il programma (pesi 50% economics & finance e 50% giuridico). • A causa del comportamento fraudolento di vs coleghi dello scorso anno, non potete portare i voti (parziali o totali) alle sessioni d’esame successive.
Course objective • The knowledge of international financial markets and institutions, from and economic and juridical points of view, is necessary to understand the fundamental changes affecting the world. • A number of relevant questions will arise, and the ability to fruitfully critic the present situation will be welcomed and evaluated. • Globalization is a very pervasive phenomenon, with a fairly negative reputation, but it is an unstoppable process and should be understood and governed to become fully virtuous.
