The Graduate Diploma in Risk Policy and Regulation (GDipRPR) is a four-month program unique in Canada. It is designed to attract students with a Master’s degree in the area of financial economics. A key feature of the program is the integration of material from a wide variety of economic and related fields relevant for risk managers, regulators, supervisors, academic and administrators of financial stability (such as central banks.) Courses in risk management theory and implementation, banking theory and practice, financial regulation, and advanced topics in risk management and regulation will be interest to those pursuing careers in the private or public sector. In addition, the incorporation of relevant material from financial management and accounting and behavioural economics will enable graduates of the program to think creatively about how alternative risk management models can be developed and applied and will allow them to contribute to the design of more effective regulations and policies influencing the financial sector.
