MIT-WPU School of Economics and Commerce launches B.Com Financial Analysis Program

The Hindu06-05-2025
The MIT World Peace University (MIT-WPU) has launched its new B.Com Financial Analysis program, with the CFA Institute delegation in attendance. The ceremony highlighted collaborative plans to integrate financial curriculum into the university's academic programs. This aims to equip students with the skills required for successful careers in the global finance sector.
Under the newly launched B.Com Financial Analysis program, MIT-WPU will offer on-campus training for the CFA Level I and II examinations, integrating them directly into the curriculum. In the first year, students will also have the opportunity to pursue the Investment Foundations Certificate from CFA Institute. This certificate will provide them with an understanding of the investment industry, including its structure, core concepts, and ethical considerations.
Dr. R. M. Chitnis, Vice Chancellor, MIT-WPU, said, 'CA, CS, and CMA are professional courses in India, focused on auditing, taxation, and legal compliance, authorised under Acts of Parliament. In contrast, the CFA is a global qualification that supports companies in finance and investment banking, representing a distinct domain. Students who pursue these professional degrees alongside the CFA qualification will gain a significant competitive advantage in the fast-evolving world of finance.'
Dr. Anjali Sane, Dean of the School of Economics and Commerce at MIT-WPU, said, ' With the launch of the B.Com Financial Analysis program, we had the opportunity to engage in insightful discussions on emerging trends in the investment industry. Our focus has been on building a curriculum that meets global industry standards and empowers students with the skills needed to thrive in the world of finance.'

US manufacturing extends slump; factory employment lowest in 5 years

U.S. manufacturing contracted for a fifth straight month in July and factory employment dropped to the lowest level in five years amid tariffs that have raised prices of imported raw materials. The Institute for Supply Management (ISM) said on Friday that its manufacturing PMI dropped to 48.0 last month from 49.0 in June. A PMI reading below 50 indicates contraction in manufacturing, which accounts for 10.2% of the economy. Economists polled by Reuters had forecast the PMI edging up to 49.5. The weak PMI reading is consistent with economists' expectations for a slowdown in activity in the third quarter as the effects of the import duties become more apparent. The ISM survey's forward-looking new orders sub-index rose to 47.1 from 46.4 in June but this was still a contraction for the sixth consecutive month. Its production measure increased to 51.4 from 50.3 in the prior month. Despite the rise in production, factories continued to shed jobs. The survey's measure of manufacturing employment decreased to 43.4, the lowest level since July 2020, from 45.0 in June. The ISM has noted an "acceleration of headcount reductions due to uncertain near- to mid-term demand."

The ISM survey's supplier deliveries index dropped to 49.3 from 54.2 in June. Its gauge of prices paid by factories for inputs declined to a still-high 64.8 last month from 69.7 in June. Government data on Thursday showed goods prices increased in June by the most in five months, with economists saying this was the start of a tariff-driven rise in goods inflation that they expected to persist through the second half of the year. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Play this game for 1 minute and see why everyone is crazy about it Undo
