The primary objective of this skill is to let participating students get into touch with foreign financial markets and practices through a short international study tour. After finishing the skill, the students will have a notion of the financial working methods of companies abroad, the nature of the local financial markets, and the economic developments of the visited country.

This course provides a useful background for second and third year Bachelor students who are interested in topics about international and cultural differences in the global financial environment. The location of the tour will vary from year to year. This year it will be in Toronto,Canada. Participants will write a paper (either in a group or alone) concerning their key findings. The SCOPE Student Association is involved in organizing the trip.
