Associate Professor of Finance at McGill University
In this episode of Money Talks, we cross continents with Patrick Augustin, Associate Professor of Finance at McGill University and Academic Director of the new Master in Management of Finance in Luxembourg, a program launched with the support of ALFI, ABBL, and the Ministry of Finance. Patrick shares how this innovative program brings McGill to Europe, filling a gap in Luxembourg’s financial ecosystem by combining world-class teaching with hands-on experience. Students will manage a real investment fund, gaining exposure to the full spectrum of portfolio management — from research and trading to compliance and reporting — in a country that leads the world in investment funds.
The conversation goes beyond academics to discuss what truly drives success in finance: curiosity, adaptability, and mindset. Patrick speaks about financial education, behavioural finance, and the art of taking calculated risks. He explains why investing in oneself is the best long-term strategy and why learning to manage emotions matters as much as mastering financial models. From avoiding procrastination to embracing uncertainty, this episode is packed with insights for anyone looking to grow in their career, or in their personal investing journey.
