![]() What advice would you like to give your successor (future faces on the Risk Magazine)? ![]() As long as the negative effects are not too large and Europe as a whole benefits I think that this is a problem the EU will have to live with. ![]() Due to the large diversity between all the member states it is nearly impossible to create a one size fits all policy. Yes, I think that influences of the ECB on all its members are not always beneficial for all its members. Terms such as ‘helicopter money’ just show that the ECB is using a method of trial and error, which I think is pretty risky when you are responsible for the European economies.ĭo you think that the influence of the ECB on all European member states can cause negative effects for individual member countries? I think that what the ECB is doing right now is a bit dangerous, because no one is really sure what the impact of the policies will be. What is your opinion on the measures that are currently being taken by the European Central Bank? As a result, I really think that the best way to get to know the financial world is to learn it on the job.Īs of now I am not sure what I want to do exactly, so I am probably going for an internship when I graduate. What I mainly learned from my masters is that the financial world is really volatile and although we learn many interesting financial theories, people like to take risk and therefore there will be always situations where these theories do not work. Altogether, this motivated me to do my masters in Finance. Furthermore, I am interested in the financial world and my attention is quickly driven to financial articles about exciting M&A transactions instead of for example macro-economic news. I really like numbers and get a lot of energy from working on difficult mathematical exercises. Why did you decide to study Finance and what did you learn from this study so far?ĭuring my Bachelors in Business Economics I quickly realized that I had a preference for the mathematical courses instead of the management courses. The main takeaway I got from my active membership is that even though you may hear no 24/25 times, you have to focus on that one time you hear yes. For this reason I thought that becoming an active member could help me create that link between theory and practice and of course I thought that it would be a great experience. I had the idea that in my study there was not really a clear link between theory and practice. I decided to become an active member, because I felt that I was missing something in my studies. Why did you decide to become an active member of Risk and what did you learn during your active membership? During these periods I also visited a lot of events of Risk, such as the investor evenings. After that I was part of the London Banking Tour committee, as chairman. My function was that of external relations. Within Risk the first committee I was a member of was the Risk Conference Committee 2014. In my spare time I like to travel, hang out with friends and play/watch sports. ![]() This is my fifth year of studying in Groningen, as I am originally from Hilversum. Before I started my masters I got a bachelor in International economics and business, during which I also spend a semester abroad in Indonesia. I am Sikander and I am 22 years old and currently studying Finance and International Financial Management. Sikander Kraaijeveld, could you please briefly introduce yourself?
