Project Description
Modul 1 behandelt die Grundlagen des liechtensteinischen und europäischen Bank- und Finanzmarktrechts. Es bildet damit die Basis für alle weiteren Module. Behandelt werden rechtliche wie ökonomische Aspekte.
Der rechtliche Block umfasst das Aufsichtsrecht ebenso wie zivilrechtliche Grundlagen. Im Mittelpunkt der auf-sichtsrechtlichen Perspektive stehen der Anwendungsbereich des EWR-Finanzmarktrechts sowie die relevante Kernregulierung. Dabei werden die Besonderheiten des unionsrechtlichen Gesetzgebungsverfahrens im Kapital-marktrecht (Lamfalussy II-Verfahren) ebenso wie die europäische Aufsichtsarchitektur vermittelt. Besonderes Au-genmerk gilt dem Zusammenspiel von nationalem und europäischem Aufsichtsrecht sowie der Abgrenzung und Kooperation verschiedener Aufsichtsbehörden (EBA, ESMA, EIOPA, FMA). Ergänzend lernen die Studierenden auch die Grundlagen des liechtensteinischen Verwaltungsrechts und des schweizerischen Finanzmarktrechts kennen. Der zivilrechtliche Teil vermittelt die Grundlagen des Bankgeschäfts (Geschäftsbeziehung zwischen Bank und Kunde, Allgemeine Bankbedingungen, Bankgeheimnis, Einlagengeschäft, Kreditgeschäft und Kreditsicherheiten).
Im ökonomischen Block erhalten die Studierenden einen detaillierten Überblick über die ökonomischen Grundla-gen der Finanzmärkte. Sie werden mit klassischen Finanzmarkttheorien (etwa der Principal-Agent-Theory oder dem Capital-Asset-Pricing-Modell) vertraut gemacht. Zudem werden die wesentlichen Grundlagen des modernen Risikomanagements und der Refinanzierungsmethoden von Banken vermittelt. Abgerundet werden die ökonomi-schen Grundlagen mit den Prinzipien von Corporate Finance und Accounting.

Project Description
Communication & psychology: Building successful and sustainable relationships with your internal and external business networks
In the age of digitalization and rapid change, the art of building lasting relationships with clients, customers, builders, colleagues, superiors and employees is more critical than ever to business success. It's not just about delivering first-class work, but also about being a trusted partner and confidante who understands and shares their clients' visions and goals. Relationships are the foundation on which to grow and develop your business.
While tools and technologies evolve, the human factor remains at the core of every business relationship. Knowing the psychology behind trusting relationships and communication situations will therefore allow you to deal more easily with demanding contemporaries in your professional and private lives.
Communication is the key to any successful relationship. Understanding someone's pattern of behavior is the key to successful communication. There are four key types of behavior that define how we interact with and perceive the people around us. By understanding these different behavioral types, you will know how to effectively communicate with each in business (and in life). The simple four-color system allows you to speedily identify a boss or coworker, customer or client, and adjust how you speak, write, and deal with them.
Building and sustaining relationships are also at the heart of organizing communities. The strength of community lies in the strength of the connections that we have with each other. Strong connections empower us to drive real, lasting change.
In this seminar you will learn how to build solid, long-term and trusting relationships with your professional
relationship network, how to "read" your conversation partners using a simple four-color system, so you win them over for your ideas and services. Last but not least, diplomatic yet crystal clear communication can minimize potential problems and conflicts, increase customer satisfaction, and build successful communities.
