What is finance?听

Finance in its鈥 most simple form is money. This includes the complex ways we interact with it for our personal benefit or on a larger scale such as managing organisational funds or even working at a national or global level in money markets worldwide. The Australian financial market grew 13.2% to $10.9 trillion during 2021* alone. Finance is all about managing financial resources and making strategic decisions in the face of uncertainty. It looks at how businesses raise capital, how people distribute savings and investments, and organisational policies and decisions. Finance is something we all have an interest in whether it鈥檚 personal or professional and it has huge impact on companies and individuals.

Finance affects all businesses and organisations and is also an industry in itself, which is why there is never a shortage of roles and positions you can pursue in finance. Financial careers have always been held in high esteem due to the heavy influence money, assets and cash flow have on organisations. Certain finance roles allow professionals to work with money and financial assets to create even more wealth and cash flow for clients and organisations. These professionals work with money to make more money.
