Couple this with the ability to create reading lists through FT.com, and staff can quickly and easily construct a list of extra reading to amplify a student’s understanding of the real world.

Using the FT as part of a Professional Subscription on a daily basis during my MSc year at SKEMA has proved to be very powerful. It provides you with everything you need to acquire a good culture of both the financial markets and the key forces which shape the daily news. It gives me more granularity regarding financial assets and market deals, something definitely helpful when coming to an interview.
