Investment Banking - An Overview

India is regaining economic momentum and growth is expected to recover gradually to its high long-term potential. The intense competition in India’s investment banking sector is both a cause and an effect of the rapid expansion of the country’s corporate market. Acquisitions galore are being more than matched with the furious competition among top banks that are falling over themselves to book Indian business, driving down fees to among the lowest in the emerging market universe.

Investment banking is therefore not one specific service or function. It describes a range of financial market activities: underwriting, selling, Trading securities (stocks and bonds), providing financial advisory services, such as mergers & acquisition advice; and managing assets. Investment banks offer these services to companies, governments, non-profit institutions, and individuals.

The Post Graduate Diploma in Investment Banking will impart enduring knowledge and skills used every day in the investment profession. It also provides tools, ideas, and concepts to understand the dynamic and complex nature of the global investment. At the end the course students will have acquired a comprehensive framework of knowledge for investment decision making.
