Apply Online

Fixed income is an investment approach focused on the preservation of capital and income. It includes investment in financial instruments such as government and corporate bonds. Apart from investing in risky stocks, market participants prefer to invest in these instruments to guarantee a fixed cash flow in the future. However, many macroeconomic factors influence the yield of these instruments, thus inviting empirical analysis of fixed-income instruments. The program aims to cover the analysis of fixed income from the industry practitioner's perspective. The program will cover the fundamental aspects of fixed-income securities such as bond contact features, types of risk observed, and the yield curves.

The program is useful for finance and non-finance executives and students aspiring for Analyst positions at major international banks operating in India and abroad. A quant-focused curriculum with practical hands-on use of “Python” will equip participants to fill the current Fintech industry demand. The pedagogy imparted will give a real glimpse of how the Big Financial giants take investment decisions in fixed-income markets.
