Overview
The Finance collection is based on courses taught at the University of Luxembourg, but it also includes wide-ranging resources on the topic, for example introductions to cryptocurrencies and highly specialised databases. The collection is currently focusing more on sustainable finance, data analysis, portfolio theory, corporate finance and risk management.
For more information about economics, please see the dedicated subject guide for this discipline.
Some of the older/less used books in the Finance collection can also be found in The Stacks on floor -2.
