In the area of financial management, on the one hand, the financial management of companies is considered comprehensively. You learn how the optimal supply of a company with financial resources takes place. You will study current financial instruments and learn about and evaluate other measures of capital procurement, capital structuring and contractual design of financial relationships via payment, information, monitoring and security rights between companies and their capital providers. Current financing options via financial markets also play a role in your studies. In addition, you will learn how to manage credit institutions in the area of bank management.

In the area of controlling, the focus is on supporting management through controlling processes, in particular planning, control, analysis and reporting, in order to manage the company in a goal-oriented manner. On the one hand, this is intended to create transparency within the company, e.g., to make it clear which products and which customers are earning how much money. On the other hand, the subdivisions of the company are to be coordinated with each other, e.g. to ensure that development, production and sales are based on the same expectations for the future sales development of the company. In addition, the use of controlling should make it clear whether a company is achieving its intended goals or will encounter problems in the future, and if so, where. The whole thing takes place both on the strategic and on the operational level. Special areas of controlling are then, for example, cost management, sustainability controlling, or functional controlling (for marketing, production or logistics).
