Why this Blog?

In 2009, we organised a Training programme at SIT on Fundamentals of Investments titled 'FINSIGHT'.  The programme evoked good response with about 70 participants from various walks of life.  Subsequently, the idea of starting a blog for sharing thoughts/concepts and ideas relating to finance struck me.  But it took some time for me to actually do so.

This blog - Finsight - aims at sharing thoughts/ideas/concepts/analysis and real life experiences from the world of Finance.  Hence its sub-title is 'Insights from the World of Finance'.  I percieve three types of people interested in this blog.
  1. My Students: I would be scribbiling my ideas regularly relating to the concepts taught in the class room.  Sometimes it so happens, that after I complete a session, I feel as an after thought, that the same concept could have been explained in a much better manner; or I feel that there are some more relevant examples/illustrations to make the concept more clear; or there may be some extensions of the concepts.  I would like to scribble all these through this platform.
  2. My ex-students: During the last 15 years I had the opportunity of teaching some highly intelligent students.  Today they are occupying various positions in the industry.  I would request them to share their experiences and add their wisdom to the posts that I make.  This would result in a process of collective learning for all of us.
  3. My Friends: I am sure many of my friends would like to keep track of some of the basic and latest concepts/practices in Finance.  
 A Warm Welcome to FINSIGHT.
