Indian stock exchanges, today, are dealing with big numbers and big buyers. The capital
markets are undergoing transformation. Today's progressive brokers deal in billions rather
than in millions. Brokers now have all their operations computerized and employ qualified
industry specialists to advice on buying and selling of stocks.
Brokers or stock market professionals are now either playing host to foreign investment
bankers, who are looking for opportunities on the Indian stock market, or visiting fund
managers abroad seeking investment here. Stock market houses are redefining themselves and
the business of stock broking is highly visible today.
The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has been empowered by an Act of
Parliament to protect the rights of investors and ensure the promotion and regulation of the
capital markets. It is the regulatory body in charge of the country's capital markets. Stock
broking business requires the services of specialists (in varied fields) - economists,
accountants, finance managers, financial analysts, capital market specialists, and investments
and financial planners.
Postgraduate courses in economics and commerce are available in most universities in the
country. Finance managers may be MBAs with specialization in finance from the reputed
institutes of management or from the departments of business administration of the major
universities.
The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI), New Delhi, conducts the chartered
accountancy course for the plus two level through the foundation course and directly for
