If we look at the future, say 50 years hence, even more fancy market models may be developed. Models would be even more accurate than what they are today. However, the incremental value addition from here to then in model creation industry for capital markets may still keep out a large delta that will continue to provide employment opportunities even 50 years from now.

Three key principles that govern global financial markets are: Transaction processing & price signaling, need for corporate governance and need for capital & new instruments. Currently, more than 50% Indians are below age 25. On the other hand, less than 1.5% of Indian population has invested in capital markets. This emphasizes the immense potential our financial markets hold for coming generations. As new markets open up worldwide, it is essential to comprehend financial markets from a multifaceted global perspective.

Introduction9

India has a diversified financial sector, which is undergoing rapid expansion. The sector comprises of commercial banks, insurance companies, non-banking financial companies, co-operatives, pension funds, mutual funds and other smaller financial entities. The financial sector in India is predominantly a banking sector with commercial banks accounting for more than 60 per cent of the total assets held by the financial system. India is today one of the most vibrant global economies, on the back of robust banking and insurance sectors. The country is projected to become the fifth largest banking sector globally by 2022, as per a joint report by KPMG-CII. According to a recent report published by the National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC), about 14 lakh people are likely to be employed in the banking industry by 2022. With a renewed focus on ‘financial inclusion’ and new banks on the anvil, the talent need for the sector will be higher than ever. With the rising use of technology in banking services, recruiters are looking at different set of skills that would help them scale their business keeping the cost low. Banking professionals are expected to possess these skills apart from the specific functional competencies.

Our programs develop the students in the following three areas:

Our faculty follows a long tradition of practice oriented research and teaching that has a profound and far reaching impact on business and management education. They help our learners build innovation in business practice, progressive thinking and the opportunity to influence as well as use these concepts. BIL has the distinct advantage of being a part of the industry for over three decades. Besides that, our faculty are also of international repute with a global presence.

There isn’t a hint of doubt that learning in the classroom will impart the requisite knowledge to the students. However, given the scope of learning one can achieve through interactive and engaging activities, it becomes all the more important to address these with our students. Teaching and learning can become spontaneous and student-centred when moved out of the confines of the classroom and into the world, at large. Learning experiences outside the classroom are inherently interdisciplinary.

Our activity-based sessions focus on achieving practical, tangible, real-world results, by ensuring every participant is engaged completely, throughout the program. The activities are less glamourous and more focused on making a significant impact on the student’s growth.

Here, at BSE Institute, we provide an experiential learning environment where students feel energised and confident of speaking their minds; ensuring every participant is constantly engaged, and continually learning.

Learning Focus

We all learn in different ways and an essential part of the process of learning is gaining an understanding of ourselves and how we learn most effectively. Academics is often an important step in our lives but the real education that makes us successful in life takes place outside the controlled environment of a classroom.

Open box is an initiative that incorporates experiential learning strategy. Students are given challenging and exciting experiences which are beneficial to maximize their potential. Various planned interventions are administered to enhance the overall personality of the learner.

This initiative taken by BIL is one of a kind specially designed for the holistic development of students and to prepare them will unique skills and knowledge for the industry. BIL aims to create independent learners who are ready and capable of navigating the path to success. BIL has the willingness to confront institutional barriers in socially appropriate ways in order to turn constraints into opportunities for change.

• Promotes open mindedness and inculcates objectivity.

• Helps students master the art of problem solving and rational decision making.

• Aims to acquaint students with their own strengths and weaknesses.

• Prepares the students to face challenges in the industry.

• Focus is on the all-round development of a student.

• BIL is committed to promoting learner centric approaches to gaining knowledge.

• The aim is to enhance the skills and capabilities of aspiring professionals.

• The program gives insights on experiential learning.

Benefits of Open box:

Open Box

Gone are the days where academic excellence alone could land you a good job. The industry, today, needs employees with well-rounded personalities. In order to give its students an edge above the others, not only academically but also as individuals, BIL hosts extra-curricular activities and workshops for its students, every week.

BIL Social is a weekly event which incorporates various co-curricular and extra-curricular activities, organized to help students step out of their comfort zones and learn in the process. The primary objective of this activity is to enhance the creativity and social skills of the students. Students are placed in social situations which may not align with their comfort zones. BIL Social provides them with an opportunity to develop interpersonal relationships. Social interactions also boost self-esteem, develop interpersonal skills & in turn, enable personal growth.

Such activities teach students how to work well with different people, build leadership qualities, develop their communication skills & handle conflict resolution. Participation in such events improves the critical thinking skills of students. They expand their social circle, which help them form connections and thus develop a greater world perspective. Breaking the monotony of classwork & studies, this event receives a very positive response from the students. Of course, awards & rewards given out each week act as great positive motivators.

Case Study

India has a diversified financial sector, which is undergoing rapid expansion. We are living in a world, where from booking a holiday, cab, flight, movie tickets to ordering food or even catching up on the latest news, all is enabled by the smart phones we carry. As technology is advancing, so is consumer demand for simplified, tech-enabled services across industries. The emergence of financial technology in the consumer banking space is pushing banks to update themselves & adopt a more consumer-centric and Technology-based approach.

Banking has been one sector that has been categorized by its low level of differentiation and engagement. It is also an industry that has been the slowest to change and evolve with the times, often leaving consumers exasperated by the complexity of the banking process. On the other hand, the advent of new technologies, evolving expectations of customers, emerging business models, and stricter regulations are making banks constantly play catch up with technology in a rapidly changing world.

India is in the top ten financial technology markets in the world. Currently, more than 600 startups are in the field of lending, payments, insurance and trading. Given the proliferation of digital payments in the country; the current financial technology software services market stands at USD 8 billion & this is expected to grow to about USD 14 billion by 2020. There is something new in the FinTech space every day. FinTech industry is freshly alive and ripe with immense opportunities. Post Graduate Diploma in FinTech will provide the participants with a multitude of avenues into this red-hot field, all with the potential to change their life, and the world, too.

BSE International Financial Olympiad is an initiative to extend financial literacy at the school level through its flagship innovative and educative, national-level financial quiz competition. It is aimed at encouraging school students to explore and learn more about the financial world by developing analytical and problem solving skills that will be essential to their careers. It focuses on empowering students with a proper understanding of the opportunities in the financial markets. It helps students prioritize their financial goals and guides them towards becoming financially responsible and independent individuals.

Young people, today, face more responsibilities and challenges than ever before. They now bear more of the costs of their own education, they also tend to borrow large sums of money at an early age. Hence it is critical for them to be financially literate at an early age. However their curriculum is already overloaded and with decreasing attention spans, conventional approaches to teaching will not work, which is why we, at BSE Institute Ltd., thought of devising a fun filled national level competition to help school children to acquire financial knowledge.

This year, we hosted the 6th edition of this event and we had a very good response, from all over the country. A total of 15,000 students from over 600 schools across the country participated in the national level competition which was spread over 6 months. We are confident that the BIFO will go a long way in encouraging our youth to be financially literate.
