The department was established in 2024 through the merger of the Institute of Finance and the Institute of Accounting and Taxes. This merger follows the classical structure of foreign universities, where students and academic staff frequently work across closely related disciplines.

The merger leverages the synergistic effects of specialists in each field and their interconnectedness in both teaching and ongoing research. Currently, a strong trend is emerging in our work: accounting and tax issues are closely linked to corporate and international finance, and thorough analysis of extensive data sources provides inspiration for financial practice as well as for shaping economic policy.

The Institute maintains significant international research collaborations, which are gradually expanding into teaching, partnerships with companies, and an increasing range of international certifications and micro-certificates.

  • Degree Programmes: Finance, Financial Services, Accounting and Taxes The Institute guarantees and delivers teaching for bachelor’s, follow-up master’s, and doctoral degree programmes.
  • International CFA Certificate The CFA certificate is a prestigious, internationally recognized qualification in financial analysis and investment.
  • International ACCA Certificate The ACCA qualification provides a mark of excellence, delivering top-tier knowledge and skills in audit, taxation, finance, and accounting.
  • Certification by the Union of Accountants A professional organization bringing together accountants, auditors, tax advisors, and other stakeholders, overseeing certification in the accounting profession.
