Is MBA finance a good course?

Hii Raja, Choose your profile where you want the job . 1) Core finance- good to have 55-60% up to graduation as MNC demands many time (try to chase MAT tier 1 colleges only or be sure with CAT higher score) 2) sales of financial products Here the brief is: Core Finance 1- Asset Management: Evaluating portfolios, funds and allocating investments in various products to enhance growth of assets under management. 2- Industry Research: Studying long term trends and overall movement of parameters like supply, demand, prices and costs. 3- Planning and Budgeting: Being a financial controller in a corporate, helping allocate budgets to various business units and estimating costs/revenues for each of them. 4- Investment Banking: Advising businesses on strategic movements like acquiring a company, merging with one or even help in fund raising, etc. 5- Risk Management: Coordinating with traders and operations teams who invest surplus firm money in daily securities. You'll advise on which trades can be passed, how much risk can be assumed, etc. 6- Treasury Management: Actual trading activity, tracking various markets and taking positions/investing to either hedge current risk or to enhance the return on investments on a large scale. This is the wholesale version of portfolio management (done for firms rather than individuals). Core Banking Core banking options are pretty much open to tier I MBAs. 7- Actuary: Helping businesses construct insurance products and pricing insurance premium based on calculations in health, life expectancy, asset life, etc. 8.Core Banking Financial sales (graduation % is not an obstacle for this) (insurance sales, mutual fund sales, demat account sales, relationship manger, corporate credit sales).
