According to the ranking, SAIF said its MF Program demonstrated comprehensive competitiveness and industry impact through performance in several crucial criteria, such as salary, which was ranked second globally, careers service, which was ranked third globally and first in Asia, and alumni network, which was ranked seventh globally.

Cheng Shijun, executive dean of SAIF, said the ranking was a testament to the institute's strategy of internationalization and its commitment to the goal of becoming a world-class institution of finance education, striving both for advancements in talent training and for excellence in academic and applied research.

SAIF said the MF program, which accepts applications internationally, has comprehensive collaborations with renowned international institutions, including Columbia University, the University of California at Berkeley, and the London School of Economics and Political Science.
