SJMSOM holds Finance Continuum

This event is third in series of our year round event “Continuum” which aims to cover the latest in management by inviting eminent speakers from business and academia. Each of these seminars focuses on issues and challenges faced by a management function, and aims at drawing insights from the knowledge and experience of the speakers. The seminars are attended by individuals from different organizations, our distinguished alumni and students from various business schools.

At the Finance Continuum 2006 with the central theme as “EMERGING MARKETS STRIKE BACK”, we propose to take a fresh look at key elements that constitute the present and future growth of Emerging economies and the various opportunities and challenges that come along for global investors. The highlight of the event will be series of talks by policy makers, leading academicians and top-notch investment professionals.

The other attraction of the event is a “Stock picking” Workshop which will aim to teach ‘How to pick a stock, what are the tools and techniques that may be used, what common mistakes to avoid and the tricks of the trade’ and a Panel Discussion on “From Money Markets to Hedge Funds: How Do We Address the Changing Needs of Investors?”
