Advisory Board

The International Financial Program is already conducting research for seventeen years. During these years we have build up an advisory board consisting of the following people:

Mr. Erik Jens
CEO Diamonds & Jewellery Clients
at ABN AMRO:
"I think the International Financial Program is an initiative with much potential. It is good to see that motivated students are already willing to put effort into firms besides their regular study program. I recommend this program to companies that see chances in emerging economies, and that just need that extra step in the 
right direction."
