Group ActivitiesInternational Financial Management
General Introduction:
International Financial Management is a new subject for many. It is therefore critical that
participants are clear about certain fundamental concepts.
The faculty associated with the training programme will make a comprehensive
presentation on the key concepts. The presentation and discussion is likely to take
approximately two hours.
Participants will also be required to read the reading materials circulated on the subject.
The module on 'International Financial Management' includes 15 problems which are
described in the following section. Participants will be divided into four groups in order
to address these problems and make presentations thereon. Groups will work on the
following problems:
Group A: Problems Nos. 1- 4
Group B: Problems Nos. 5- 8
Group C: Problems Nos. 9- 12
Group D: Problems Nos. 13- 15This module also draws on two interesting case studies, entitled 'Guns' and 'Helicopters'.
All participants will be required to read the case studies in their respective groups and
make specific recommendations on the issues that the case studies raise.
As in the case of previous modules, faculty will be available for clarification of doubts
while the group discussion is in progress.
During group presentations, faculty will be available for moderation and summing up.
