NSE Academy takes off with a global program
MUMBAI:
In its endeavour to ensure
financial well-being of people and quality education, India’s leading
stock exchange, the National Stock Exchange of India Limited (NSE) has
formed NSE Academy Limited.
The newly created structure will henceforth administer all existing educational programs offered by NSE, for different levels of
students. Ms
Chitra Ramkrishna, MD & CEO, NSE, said, “With India being in the
list of top 10 countries in terms of market capitalisation of around
$1.66 trillion (Rs.100 lakh crore)
and its market capitalization-to-GDP ratio being as high as about 75%,
NSE’s efforts can actually make our students stand out as professionals
in the global capital markets. Significantly, they can also play a
pivotal role in improving financial well-being
of people”.
NSE
Academy will flag off its journey with NSE’s redesigned flagship
program called Post Graduate Certificate Programme in Global Financial
Markets
(PGCP-GFM).
PGCP-GFM
has been designed by market professionals, keeping in mind demands from
a large number of captive units of MNCs, KPOs, BPMs, custodians,
pension funds etc spread across multiple geographies. Most of these
companies are registered with Financial Industry Regulatory Authority
(FINRA) / Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) - the US and Singapore’s
regulatory authorities and require financial
market professionals for serving their US and international clients.
Apart from meeting demands from large corporates, it is expected to play
a critical role in providing trained manpower for the IFC, coming up in
the GIFT city, Gujarat, where NSE is in the
process of setting up an international exchange.
It will be offered from Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Ahmedabad, Kolkata and Hyderabad and regular classes will start from 27 July 2016.
The participants
will develop skills to handle international clients and will be exposed
to the best market practices, during a week-long Singapore immersion
programme. The 11 month PGCP-GFM program comes with 15 global regulatory
certifications in financial markets from the
USA, Singapore and India. It includes certificates from Global
Financial Regulatory Certification Examination of FINRA, USA and Capital
Market and Financial Advisory Services (CMFAS) examinations.
