About the Book

Financial Services is a book on the functioning and performance of the vibrant financial services sector in India. The services sector contributes to the economic development of a country on a greater scale. This book deals with each of those services in a well-structured format. It contains chapters devoted to credit rating, factoring, venture capital, securitisation and depositories. The dynamic growth of the capital market in India has opened up the need for various services like merchant banking, stock broking and issue management. This book throws light on such financial services with a focus on the basic concepts, regulatory issues and the contemporary developments in the industry. It is written in a style that touches upon the essentials and avoids unnecessary frills and overloading of information. Unlike the other comparative books on the subject, Financial Services avoids the clutter of too many legal lingo relating to the Regulations. The book presents a review of the international scenario in specific financial services in addition to the discussion on the domestic set up.
