首先要係度多謝幾年前去師兄機械貓提供左好多有用既資料,如下
QFN主要包含三個部分:Corporate Finance、Investment & Portfolio Managemt和Financial Market & Institutions。
RMS包含了保險、金融和分析三個部分。
AC則是保險業的支柱,除了數學,還要有sell result的技巧。
IFAA顧名思義,不用多談,但數學的courses較另外三個少。
第一回合:QFN v.s. AC v.s. IFAA
(資料來源:CU QFN leaflet、UST admission talk)
QFN
•offered by Department of Finance
•specializes on financial theory & computational skills
•applied financial knowledge, together with Maths & Stat tools, to solve for business problems
•focus on business finance, financial engineering and quantitative methods
AC/IFAA
•offered by Department of Statistics(AC)
•offered by Department of Finance(IFAA)
•specializes on probability & Stat theory
•applied Stat knowledge to solve for problems in insurance
•focus on insurance and pension plans
第二回合:QFN v.s. RMS
相同之處
•application of quantitative methods to risk management
•use financial instruments to solve the problems
相異之處
QFN
focus on business finance and the management of financial market risks
RMS
focus on all kinds of risks
第三回合:RMS v.s. IFAA
RMS
•大量MATH和STAT的courses
•較少金融一類的courses
•比較數字化
IFAA
•大量金融的courses,附以決策科學和少量的Acct、Management等課程
•MATH和STAT只屬其中一個electives
•較著重金融分析
第四回合:RMS v.s. AC
RMS
•focus on all kinds of risks
•not only prepare for the actuaries
AC
•focus on the design of insurace products and the opearation of insurance companies
•prepare the career path to the actuaries
第五回合:IFAA v.s. AC
相同之處
focus on insurance
IFAA
•fewer mathematical courses
•more finance courses
AC
•more mathematical and stat courses
•less finance courses

CU INS, FIN & ACT ANA
CU IFAA都係神人科,唔同HKU精算,IFAA唔一定要做insurance(唔好以為精算=好深的數/數的advance,其實精算=保險運算學,係用stat計下保費,計下生命表,計下人死賠insurance的機率,絕對容易過讀maths),CU IFAA係商學院,soft skill學得比HKU多,career support聽講都好D,同埋可以轉行做finance......
if你係神人又想讀數,IFAA係你第2 choice......
睇左上面既分析之後,我想問下各位意見,我個人數學無超曬班既能力(Expect 2013DSE 5*, mc錯3條long q ~8成幾),參加數學比賽都係陪跑分子,當然應付DSE程度係可以,但係感覺到進階既數學就有d難度(我讀m1,stat係完全無問題但係微積分就麻麻地,expect DSE 5) 咁想請問下以上四科IFAA係咪相對黎講咁無著重maths, 定係我maths咁既情況底下就唔適合讀上面既科,應該走返去讀Econ&Fin ?我聽過有人話精算,保險要maths好勁先入得,但係上面篇article有部份內容又話course入面既maths唔算特別深。 唔該曬
