| Post Graduate Diploma in Financial Management (PGDFM)
(Equivalent to MBA - Accredited by AIU)
The financial Sector in India has seen substantial changes over the past decades. India is moving rapidly towards capital account convertibility. Companies and individuals access to funds have changed dramatically. Domestic (and, to a limited extent, foreign) capital markets are now relatively freely accessible. Increased availability and use of derivatives allow fine-tuning of terms of financing. The financial markets have become much more transparent and efficient. The regulation and financial intermediaries are changing. Regulations now focus on risks and management of risks return than on producers. Instruments such as swaps and credit derivatives, techniques such as value at risk and yield curve modeling regulatory innovations such as basing capital adequacy norms on market and credit risk, did not exist before the 0980 but have now become the norms.
Further, the practice of finance has evolved rapidly as a result of these changes. Finance today involves evaluating and using instrument, markets and methodologies different from those prevailing just a few years earlier.
Today’s practitioner should also be equipped to analyse and evaluate developments that are bound to occur in the years to come. In addition, the peculiarities of the Indian and other emerging markets mean that tools and techniques need to be adopted or developed before they can be used effectively. At the same time subject of Financial Management is undergoing rapid changes with the shift in emphasis from raising funds to best utilization of limited funds.
