India’s leading exchange, the National Stock
Exchange has launched a full time Post Graduate Programme in Global Financial
Markets (PGP-GFM), for which classes will be held in New Delhi from 27th

time in India. The course will teach globally benchmarked curriculum and offer
14 International regulatory certifications from USA, Singapore and India.
The participants will develop skills to handle
international clients and will be exposed to best market practices, during the
one week Singapore Immersion programme. Singapore is ranked number one globally
for ease of doing business and has one of the strongest and most robust
International financial centres.
NSE MD and CEO, Ms Chitra Ramkrishna said in a written
statement ‘’ we are very happy that we are launching the first of its kind
global post graduate programme, through which students can study globally
benchmarked curriculum, while they are residing in India, as well as acquire
skills on securities products in Singapore and US and the regulatory frameworks
in these destinations. ‘’
The programme offers
multiple career options in financial markets in USA, Singapore and India, in
banking and financial institutions, asset management companies, consulting
firms, private equity, venture capitalist, regulators, credit rating agencies,
hedge funds, technology, insurance, NBFCs etc.
There are a large numbers of
captive units of MNCs, KPOs, business process management units, custodians,
pension funds etc. in the financial market domain, catering to USA, UK and
Singapore clients (which will come up in GIFT and are currently operating in
India) . These companies are registered with FINRA/MAS
(the US and Singapore’s regulatory authorities) and require financial market
professionals for serving their US and international clients. FINRA and MAS
certified professionals are in high demand and get lucrative packages and
attractive work profiles, because these are skills very few Professionals have
