MM Finance and Investment Management (FIM) - Overview

The financial markets have undergone remarkable transformations around the world. Extraordinary volatility, records rise and fall, dramatic technological advances, heightened interest and involvement in electronic day trading and increased access to once-guarded information have created a newly open and democratic trading environment.

Recognizing the potentially dramatic influence of the financial market transformation above to the Indonesian domestic markets and being well aware of myriad of teaching-learning programs in the field of financial management in campuses around the world already available, IPMI feels that there is still a genuine need for a concise MM Finance and Investment Management (FIM) Program that serves the needs of both the novice and senior participants. The new IPMI MM FIM curriculum is a new improved program based on the Candidate Body of Knowledge (CBOK) from the CFA program, CPFS of LOMA, WMI, WPEE, and Risk Management.
