I have been offered admission at Swiss Institute of Finance at Zurich. Is it a good place to pursue the degree?

If you are not sure whether the place is good or not, why did you apply there? It surely depends on your other offers and also on what you want to do after your PhD

an insightful philosopher once said "i would not join any club that is stupid enough to admit me as a member."

Very nice of you, guys! I have multiple offers and I do not know much about European schools. This program looks very good but is very young program so I thought you will have some information for me. Negativity does not help anyone!

If you want an academic job in the US after your PhD, then your chances of getting a good one are quite low if you have a PhD from Zurich. If you want to become a banker in Switzerland, then it seems like a natural place to go.
