London Business School has retained its place at the top of the master’s in finance ranking this year, one of four schools from the United Kingdom to feature in the top 10. LBS achieves a perfect score for employability, one of the five indicators used to compile the ranking. You can find out more about the methodology that’s used here.

In compiling this year’s ranking, we were also able to gather several insights into what the typical finance master’s classroom looks like. For instance, 41 percent of students identify as female, while 71 percent of students identify as international.

We’ve also been able to compare the typical top finance program in the US with its European counterpart. For example, tuition is over twice as expensive in the US - US$52,550 compared to US$23,100 - although graduates earn about US$15,000 more.
