Expand your skills and nurture an exciting future with advanced understanding of the new technologies, financial strategies and business models changing the face of business, including agribusiness.
New finance-based technologies and innovation strategies are revolutionising the global economy. Banking, investment and commerce are increasingly driven by the application of data, backed by transaction information held on new blockchain platforms. Lincoln University’s Master of Fintech and Investment Management grows the advanced skills you’ll need to evaluate and apply fintech priorities to finance, investment, information technology as well as agriculture.
It will cultivate your ability to help businesses (including agribusinesses) flourish through applying new disruptive technologies and leaner, data-driven business models. This programme is ideal if you already have a conventional finance background and want to upskill, or if you have a bachelor’s degree in an unrelated subject.
