Advance Certification in Financial Markets:  A joint Certification by National Institute of  Securities Markets and ICICIdirect Centre for Financial Planning for a career in Advisory, Wealth, Distribution, Operations and Compliance in Financial Markets.

About the Programme: Financial markets play an important role in the economy. There is a  strong positive correlation between growth in financial markets and economic growth. With changes in the external environment, financial markets too are undergoing a huge change, resulting in changing expectations of recruiters. Some of the changes impacting the Industry are the need for quicker decision making, product complexity, regulatory environment, globalisation and increased competition.

These changes have increased the importance for new skill sets and practical knowledge. Some of the ways this is manifesting are:

ü  The increase in the number of products and complexity has resulted in requirement of specialised knowledge, with students looking to build their career in the sales & distribution of financial products.

ü  Evolving customer expectations are making the industry shift its orientation from selling financial products to advisory, financial planning and wealth management. Students who aspire to work in the advisory domain need an in-depth understanding of client needs, behaviour, suitability of products, financial planning process and dynamic wealth management.

ü  Events that followed the 2008 financial crisis increased the importance of financial risk management, compliance and operations. This focus has created lot of opportunities for individuals who have expertise and knowledge of relevant domains.

ü  Decisions about buying financial products are generally not taken in isolation. Effects of addition or subtraction of a new product to the portfolio affect the risk-reward characteristic of the total portfolio, so candidates with knowledge of the portfolio management process and research are in demand. 

Therefore, to succeed and thrive in this dynamic industry, a student needs to have specialised knowledge about the domain under which he aspires to work.
