The Institute for Law and Finance (ILF) at Goethe University in Frankfurt am Main offers a unique one-year postgraduate program leading to a Master of Laws in Finance (LL.M. Finance). All courses are conducted in English.

The program is aimed at students with a prior degree in law or business/economics and who wish to combine theoretical knowledge with practical training in law and international finance. The program builds on the role of Frankfurt as a leading banking, central banking and financial center of the European Union.

The curriculum is interdisciplinary, covering all aspects of international financial law with emphasis on the EU and the US, along with parallel developments in the field of international finance. The ILF faculty consists of both leading academics as well as experienced practitioners from Europe’s financial world e.g. leading law firms, banks, central banks, regulatory authorities and the European Central Bank.
