In today's world, where interaction between law and economics has become clearer under the light of the developments in relation to globalisation, the need for experts, who not only know the legal framework of market economy well, but also can comprehend the economic effects of legal rules and analyze the economic sides of different legal regimes, is growing. In order to meet this need, it is important to train university degree holders in economics as well as law.

Investors require experts, who can interpret the legal rules by taking economic points of view into consideration and comment on a certain economic behaviour in the contexts of different legal systems, rather than standard legal consultancy.
