🎓 Excited to announce the completion of a comprehensive course on “Fundamentals of Financial Services” offered by The Chartered Institute for Securities & Investment (The CISI)! This learning journey has deepened my understanding of essential topics in the Financial Sector. In the financial services sector, ethics and integrity are the cornerstones of trust and reputation.

Banking aspects explored retail and commercial operations, retail borrowing, interest rates, secured and unsecured borrowing, and the roles of investment banks and central banks. Equities discussions included issuing shares, IPOs, returns, voting rights, and ownership risks. Bonds sessions introduced issuers, features, terminology, advantages, disadvantages, and the role of credit rating agencies. Derivatives sections focused on futures and options, underlining their market significance, while market topics included the function of stock exchanges, IPO processes, and stock exchange indices. The course also touched on other financial services areas such as fund management, foreign exchange, insurance, financial planning, and fintech, showcasing the sector's diversity and complexity.
