Trends in Financial Management
The distinction between short-term and long-term fi nancing vis-a-vis the functions of commercial banks and term-lending institutions (ICICI, IDBI, etc.) is fast disappearing. Electronic funds transfer is spreading. There is a movement away from the concept of cash credit to one of loans. The treasury function talks of marketable securities and the management of defi cits and surpluses. The world of derivatives, futures, options, warrants swaps and buy-backs is close at hand. When will commercial banking open up to trade fi nancing? In this lesson Prof. R Vaidyanathan of IIMB expounds the emerging scenario. The future of Non Banking Finance Companies (NBFCs), Offshore Banking and the question of Risk Management in the context of interest rate liberalisation and derivative products is expounded. How can one ensure information effi ciency in the Capital Markets?
