PGDM in Financial Management – What It Entails and Who Should Opt for it

Enrolling for a post graduate diploma in management (PGDM) from a prestigious institute, like Asia-Pacific Institute of Management, is a smart move if you have just completed your graduation. Asia-Pacific Institute of Management offers four full-time management courses:
• PGDM in Financial Management
• PGDM in General Management
• PGDM in Marketing Management
• And, PGDM in International Business
Herein this blog post, we will focus on PGDM in Financial Management and who should opt for this course.

• Post Graduate Diploma in Financial Management (Financial)
The AICTE and Ministry of HRD (Govt. of India) Approved PGDM Program in Banking & Finance has been prepared by the faculties who have experience of both academia and industry, and also by the managers and leaders who we regularly connect with. These people understand the industry from inside out, and keep updating our finance course every year.
In Financial Management, the first year education introduces you to all the functional areas that make a business, be it marketing, accounting, human resource management, or economics. It’s in the second year that your subjects tend to be more concentrated on preparing you to excel in banking and finance.
Post successful completion of PGDM in Financial Management, you will sit for the campus placement and get selected by some of the best companies that need smart and knowledgeable executives. The companies could be the leading banks that we all have heard about such as ICICI Bank, Yes Bank, or HDFC Bank. They could be FMCG companies. Or, they could be pure financial services companies.

• Who should opt for a post graduate diploma in management?
MBAs and PGDMs tend to be a lot similar in their content and approach to prepare students for management and leadership roles. However, PGDMs are considered a better option for those who are more interested in getting better at the practical side of managing all sorts of businesses, be it a start-up, a small organisation, or an MNC, or anything in between. Even IIMs offer PGDMs and not MBAs.
MBAs have their own advantages. They are a good option if you have your own family business and are more interested in gaining a theoretical understanding of running a business. Of course, MBAs also offer a certain degree of practical knowledge. However, when it comes to corporates, they tend to favour PGDM students.
Now you should opt for a PGDM in Financial Management if:
– You have a knack for accounting, taxation, and investments
– You want to build a career in banks or financial institutions
– You have a family business and want to understand the ins and outs of finance
– You want a high paying career
