As
the Indian economy is growing at over 8.5% per annum
and is slated to become the second biggest economy in
the world by 2050 (as opined by Goldman Sacch in their
BRICS Report II). More and more Indian companies are
become integrated into the global market.
Many of the companies engaged in export and import trade
and also corporates who have been raising funds from
abroad by way of ECB or FCCB are becoming increasingly
exposed to foreign exchange risks. So it has become
imperative for everyone connected with international
finance or foreign trade to understand the exchange
rate mechanism and the exchange rate risk so as to manage
the risks efficiently and take appropriate action at
the right time to ensure optimum profits for their enterprise.
With a view to provide a comprehensive knowledge on
all the aspects regarding foreign exchange, AMA has
designed this course ‘Foreign Exchange and Risk
Management’. The programme has been scheduled
on weekends, so that the busy professionals and business
people can attend and benefit from the programme.
