This course is specifically designed for professionals seeking to accelerate the adoption of AI within the field of Corporate Finance, transforming data into financial intelligence while developing the ability to identify high-impact opportunities, automate complex analyses and improve decision-making accuracy.
What is Artificial Intelligence applied to Finance?
Artificial Intelligence applied to Finance involves the use of data models, predictive algorithms and Machine Learning techniques to optimise processes such as:
- Company valuation and automated financial modelling
- Predictive analytics applied to corporate finance
- Scenario simulation and support for strategic decision-making
- Capital structure optimisation and risk management
- Investment analysis and algorithmic trading
- Intelligent portfolio management and backtesting using real market data
It is not simply about understanding the technology itself, but about knowing where and how to apply AI in Finance, identifying viable use cases and implementing solutions that deliver tangible impact in terms of efficiency, analytical accuracy and competitive advantage, both within corporate finance and investment management.
Practical, business-oriented approach
The programme’s pedagogical design combines conceptual understanding with practical application, enabling participants to consolidate their learning through case studies, Machine Learning-based valuation models, scenario simulations, backtesting with real market data, and workshops focused on solving real-world financial challenges.
The Applied Artificial Intelligence for Finance Course (5 ECTS) is a specialist module within La Salle-URL’s Artificial Intelligence learning pathway. It forms part of the Artificial Intelligence in Business Programme (15 ECTS), which leads to the University Expert Diploma awarded by Ramon Llull University.
