Frankfurt am Main has a long history as a free spirit - the recognition as a "Freie Reichsstadt", the birth city of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, the headquarters of the first parliament on German soil …
This free-spirited attitude has favoured not only academia, but also the development as a location for professions concentrated on education and knowledge.
Today, given the close networking of academia and practice at the financial centre, the Frankfurt Rhine-Main "knowledge region" is a European centre for economics and finance excellence in research and teaching.
The various university landscape and the specialisations in the various sub-fields of finance offer students in Frankfurt Rhine-Main opportunities that fit every career goal.
Continuing education is a crucial key to success. The Frankfurt financial centre also provides outstanding continuing education options for professionals.
The new yearbook of Frankfurt Main Finance outlines the success factors for a financial centre. In it, well-known experts from the financial sector and politics such as the German Minister of Finance Wolfgang Schäuble, Deutsche Bank Management Board member Hermann-Josef Lamberti and Deutsche Börse Executive Board member Frank Gerstenschläger, discuss the key components of a successful financial centre.
