The increasing complexity of business environments makes it especially challenging for managers and employees to create sustainable value. The major in Accounting and Business Control provides the required technical skills, theoretical knowledge, and deep understanding of various types of topics related to business, to successfully contribute to sustainable value creation in organisations.

You will gain the knowledge and skills necessary to pursue a career as a CFO, controller, treasurer, or corporate manager. These professionals need to be proficient in accounting, financial control, strategy, treasury, and forecasting. To understand what is required to establish a career as a controller, you will acquire knowledge in reporting, analysis, and the presentation of historical information of companies. In order to work in treasury, you will learn about capital structures, financial risk, liquidity, and investment analysis. Finally, to be proficient in strategy and forecasting, you will develop knowledge and skills in strategic business analysis, modelling, scenario analysis, and valuation.

This major closely follows the syllabus of the internationally recognised finance qualification CIMA. Upon graduation, you can continue towards CIMA accreditation. Two of the pillars at CIMA’s Strategic Level are automatically recognised by CIMA after completion of the major in Accounting and Business Control. BI is the only school in the Nordic countries that offers this valuable option.
