Course description
The course is entirely based on the Cesim Bank Simulation game. Students are asked to form groups and to play the role of a bank manager. Teams will be responsible for taking decisions in various business and operational areas. Success will be measured and benchmarked by both operational and financial key indicators including assets under management, deposit and credit product growth, bank image, risk metrics, return on assets, return on equity, etc. The ultimate indicator in the game is the total shareholder return p.a., which consolidates all the key success factors into one measure criterion. Beyond the participation in the game, students will communicate with their team mates, will assess their own and other teams' results and will present their key results in reports or in front of the audience.
