The IIM Kozhikode Advantage
From The Director’s Desk

IIM Kozhikode programmes designed by world-class faculty with their cutting-edge thought
leadership and industry-leading insights empower participants to manage and lead complex
business challenges with confidence and data-driven, informed decision-making ability. Our
growing global footprints acknowledged and accredited by leading institutions of the world are a
testimony to growth we have achieved in our nearly 28-year journey of academic excellence.

At this juncture, it is also pertinent to share that both future and past are integral to the path
taken by an institution on this journey of excellence. Having a wide, far-seeing vision is not an
indulgence but an activity that is necessary to give meaning to our present, to give this Institution
a sense of purpose, direction and imagination. That is why we have chosen to think in terms of
what IIM Kozhikode will be able to contribute to India and the world some three decades from
now with ‘Vision 2047: Globalizing Indian Thought’. The Institute has set for itself a pre-eminent
role with the above motto. The sheer scale, scope and potential impact that India will have on 21st
century business makes us believe that this is a legitimate aspiration.

For candidates, it is pertinent to understand that strong financial analysis and management is the
bedrock of corporate profitability. It can not only help meet tomorrow's business goals, but also
maximise revenue and minimise waste, and can be invariably used to leverage rare opportunities.
As businesses across geographies gear up to manage the evolving financial landscape, the need for
well-trained and competent finance professionals is more acute than ever. The FAFM programme
has thus been designed keeping the above objectives in mind.

Wishing you all a very happy learning experience at IIM Kozhikode!

Significant Events That Revolutionized the Financial Sector in India

India is using technology to revolutionize its financial sector, with India Stack, AI, embedded
finance, and robotics leading the way. Fintech partnerships with traditional lenders are providing
customized credit products, insurance, savings, and loans.

Finance management is one such subset of finance that has seen substantial growth in the last
decade. And financial analysis is the most in-demand finance niche in 2022. It is believed that a
financial analyst’s job profile has seen a surge of 30% in the last decade.

A recent survey conducted by the bureau, revealed that there will be an 11%
growth in employment opportunities for financial analysts by 2026.

Neo-banking is projected to increase by 281%, representing almost 9% of India's

fintech market, despite strict digital lending regulations by the Reserve Bank of
India. The guidelines are expected to encourage the development of specialized
regtech start-ups in the financial industry.
