Brickwork Finance Academy Announces Session on "US Equity Markets"


Bangalore, Karnataka, India, Wednesday, October 03, 2012 -- (Business Wire India) -- Brickwork Finance Academy announces session on "US Equity Markets" at its campus in Kalena Agrahara, Bannerghatta Road, on Saturday, October 6, 2012 between 9.30 am to12.30 pm.

Globalization and the outsourcing boom has made it imperative for finance professionals in India to not only have a thorough understanding of financial markets in the country, but also to have good knowledge of the market structures abroad, especially the US. This is particularly relevant as Indian BPO / KPO firms attempt to maintain and consolidate their position by providing value added services, in order to ward off stiff competition from other economies like China, Philippines, Vietnam etc.

The session aims to discuss various aspects of the US markets namely:

-- Order-Driven Vs. Quote-Driven Markets
-- Exchanges and OTC Markets
-- Role of Specialists
-- Alternative Trading Systems
-- Basic Functioning of the Stock Markets
-- Evolving Stock Market Practices

The session is part of promoting financial literacy and discussions amongst interested professionals.

The coursework includes 18 modules in basic finance, investments, credit and risk management.
