We, at Jaipuria Institute of Management, believe in providing our students with enriching learning opportunities beyond classroom lectures. To that end, we recently hosted a workshop on the “Emergence of Mutual Fund Industry in India”. Conducted by Mr. Ashish Giri, a seasoned Product Specialist from ICICI Asset Management Company, the session offered valuable insights into the mutual fund industry and its significant growth trajectory in India.
The workshop was held at the JIM Auditorium on 6th June 2023 and spanned over an enlightening hour. The session was designed to offer students an in-depth look into the multifaceted world of mutual funds.
Overview and Growth: The workshop started with an overview of the Mutual Fund Industry. Mr. Giri painted a detailed picture of the industry, its structure, and its integral role in the Indian financial market. The discussion further led to the historical development of mutual funds in India, highlighting the key factors contributing to their growth.
Investment Strategies: The session proceeded with Mr. Giri enlightening the students about the diverse investment strategies employed by mutual funds. He meticulously explained how these strategies are devised to generate returns while mitigating associated risks.
Opportunities and Challenges: Following this, the spotlight was on the current landscape of the mutual fund industry. It covered opportunities that this industry holds for potential investors and the challenges faced by fund managers. This balanced perspective provided students with a realistic understanding of the field they might step into in the future.
Interactive Q&A: One of the workshop’s highlights was the interactive Q&A session. It was a forum where students could satisfy their curiosity, seek clarifications, and gain first-hand insights from an industry expert. Mr. Giri’s responses added a practical dimension to the theoretical knowledge the students had previously acquired.
Mr. Ashish Giri, with his expansive experience and deep understanding of investment products and strategies, provided our students with an enriching and interactive experience.
