A Swansea University Business School student has received an award for his dissertation from London-based loss adjusting firm, Concordia Consultancy.
Anton Kossack, aged 26, gained a Distinction in his MSc in Management Finance in January. He was presented with a certificate and £150 from Concordia this month for his dissertation which examined the value effects of diversification of UK publicly listed companies.
Anton’s supervisor, Professor Mike Adams, said: “Anton’s research examined how business diversification could help to manage risks and increase returns for shareholders.
“This is a very important topic for investors, financial analysts and others with an interest in the financial performance of companies. I am delighted that this work has been recognised by Concordia Consultancy.”
Anton, who, following his degree success, is currently working as an Insurance Pricing Analyst at Admiral Group in Cardiff, said: “I am thrilled with this recognition of my efforts. After five years at Swansea University this is an excellent conclusion to my academic career and I am grateful to Professor Adams for his guidance throughout the Masters course.”
