About the Financial laboratory
The financial laboratory simulates a trading room environment. It includes 24 Bloomberg terminals and 2 independent terminals with Datastream, a global financial database.
Bloomberg is used by professional traders worldwide to monitor and analyse financial data. You'll have access to an online archive of information accumulated by more than 325,000 of the world's most influential decision-makers.
This will give you valuable experience of a platform used by major financial institutions and government agencies.
The financial laboratory is for private study, small tutorials, society events and trading competitions.
