Why are we studying statistics? Why is learning mathematics useful in our field?

RMBI’s career workshop yesterday offered clear and inspiring answers, and much more. Led by our distinguished alumnus Mr. Sky So, Partner at Ernst & Young’s Financial Services Risk Management, the session was entirely student-driven and highly interactive. From the very beginning, Sky welcomed questions and thoughtfully addressed each one. As a long-term mentor to RMBI students, he shared valuable insights on bridging the gap between academic study and professional application. The talk focused on how mathematics and statistics can be leveraged in consulting and banking. The discussion also touched on career planning and lifelong learning, inspiring students to see the real-world impact of their studies.
