MESSAGE FROM NIFM Dear Recruiters, Greetings from NIFM, Faridabad. Last decade has seen rapid strides being made in the field of Financial Markets in India. From the conventional platform of treasury bills and call money, it has evolved through many stages to commercial paper, certificates of deposit, repos, FRAs and IRS more recently. The market today consists of diverse sub-markets and attempts to fulfill the borrowing and investment requirements of providers and users of funds. This growth has opened up many avenues but has also added complexities in its working, thereby increasing various risk factors. The growing economic strength of India can be sustained only by well qualified professionals possessing necessary expertise and skills. The programme, Post-Graduate Diploma in Management - Financial Markets, offered by the NIFM in collaboration with the NSE is a unique one-year programme designed for the professionals and practitioners to excel in the areas of financial markets viz. equity, debt, mutual funds, derivatives, commodities etc. The premise of the programme rests on the motto of acquiring skills to make informed decisions. We believe that one who has an edge in understanding the market and the products would take advantage of the opportunities and surge ahead. The programme is delivered by experienced faculty drawn from the NIFM, the NSE and corporate. Delivery and conduct of the programme is monitored by the Academic Advisory Committee of the NIFM. I warmly welcome all recruiters to visit our campus for placement of students and assure you that it will be a satisfying and mutually beneficial experience to both the recruiters and the students. I also look forward to building a relationship with your esteemed organization by making our students a part of your company's environment and emerging managerial needs. 02 Harsh Kumar, IRAS Director

INTERNATIONAL COLLABORATION STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT Looking at the global developments and the emanating challenges to upgrade the contents as well as the delivery of our programmes in line with best international practices, NIFM required developing institutional collaborations with reputed institutions in India and abroad. The selection of partner institution was also aimed at exposure of the faculty of NIFM to the other institutions of repute in terms of research base, pedagogy and contents. Accordingly, the following national and international institutions were identified for collaboration with NIFM: Collaborations with National Institutions National Stock Exchange, Mumbai Haryana Institute of Public Administration, Haryana The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, New Delhi Collaborations with International Institutions Asian Institute of Management, Manila, Philippines Edinburgh Business School,Scotland, UK International Centre for Promotion of Enterprises, Slovenia Manchester Metropolitan University, United Kingdom Royal Institute of Public Administration, United Kingdom Universiti Utara Malaysia The major items for collaborations include: 1. Resource sharing between the two institutions including faculty exchange; 2. Organizing joint events viz. workshops, seminars, conferences, research on contemporary issues of mutual interest to both institutions; 3. Conducting joint academic programmes at NIFM and vice versa; 4. Possibility of attachment of participants of various courses of NIFM with various institutions; 5. Possibility of networking the two institutions with the other institutions in the respective regions and/or country; and 6. Any other activity of mutual interest to both the institutions. It has been through a concerted and comprehensive exercise that NIFM has concluded the three important MOUs with leading International institutions. This would provide a good fillip in visibility and credibility of NIFM. The scope of activities agreed is also quite broad based and NIFM would be able to extend its academic/research base quite significantly.
