Finance department of the company is responsible for its risk management and

for its risk reduction. During my postgraduate studies I learnt that all businesses face a

tradeoff between their risk and their expected return, also I learnt that all businesses

face risks in their operations. Furthermore I was taught many modeling strategies that

companies use in order to identify the risk that they face like CAPM. In addition I was

taught many strategies and financial instruments that many companies use in order to

reduce their risk exposure. For this reason I would like to see what I have learnt in

practice. Moreover we are living in an uncertain environment due to the expansion of

financial crisis; therefore the importance of finance department is growing in our

days. All investors and companies are trying to minimize the risk that they face and

this department is responsible for minimizing the company's risk exposure. For this

reason its importance is growing in our days and I am looking forward to working in

this important department.

During my internship at the National Bank of Greece I learnt how to work as

part of a team, while also improving my time management and problem solving skills

since I was asked to deliver many demanding projects with pressuring deadlines.

Furthermore part of my duties involved direct and constant contact with several

clients of the bank resulting to a substantial improvement of my communication

skills. Additionally during my work there I became familiar and worked on many

banking systems that required from me a lot of attention. Lastly during my

postgraduate studies I enhanced my analytical and organizational skills since I was

required to submit many demanding courseworks and also I became more adaptable

and communicative in order to build constructive relationships with the other

international students.
