European Bachelor’s Degree in Finance (via CFGS)
Specialize in the Latest Financial Trends with the Bachelor's Degree in Finance
If you already hold a Higher National Diploma in Administration and Finance, this program will allow you to obtain an official Bachelor’s Degree in Finance, equivalent to a European undergraduate degree. The program offers students an in-depth understanding of financial principles, investment analysis, risk management, accounting, taxation, and other key areas. It combines theoretical knowledge with practical application, including case studies, group projects, and internships in the financial sector.
This Bachelor’s program is offered by the Barcelona Finance School with the official accreditation of Ascencia Business School / College de Paris, a highly reputed French institution. With five campuses in the Île-de-France region, they boast an 85% employment rate and a strong professional orientation.
The degree leads to the Business Development Manager Level 6 certification (equivalent to 180 ECTS credits), registered with the RNCP by decision of France Compétences on September 10, 2019. It is awarded by the Association Sup de Vinci and granted by Ascencia Business School, part of the College de Paris. The program ranks among the top 20 according to Eduniversal and Le Parisien Étudiant.
The qualification is officially recognized in France and therefore valid across the European Higher Education Area (EHEA), making it eligible for equivalency with a Spanish undergraduate degree. This recognition allows graduates to enroll in any official master’s program in Spain and apply for top-level public service positions.
Additionally, the course prepares students to obtain the European Investment Practitioner (EIP) and ESG Advisor certifications from the European Financial Planning Association (EFPA), recognized by the CNMV (Spain’s National Securities Market Commission).
