...decisions. Types of investor In continuation of the lessons I’ve learned from Rich Dad Poor Dad author, Robert Kiyosaki, I will discuss today what he called “Types of Investors.” According to him, there are two main types of investors: Average Investors and Professional Investors. Average investors - buy packaged securities such as mutual funds, treasury bills, or real-estate-investment trusts. Professional investors - are more aggressive—they create investment opportunities or get in on the ground floor of new offerings, build businesses and marketing networks, assemble groups of financiers to fund deals too large for them to undertake alone, and pick the companies with the most promise for initial public offerings of stock. INVESTMENT AVENUES IN INDIA There are a large number of investment instruments available today. To make our lives easier we would classify or group them under 4 main types of investment avenues. We shall name and briefly describe them. Financial securities: These investment instruments are freely tradable and negotiable. These would include equity shares, preference shares, convertible debentures, non-convertible debentures, public sector bonds, savings certificates, gilt-edged securities and money market securities. Non-securities financial securities: These investment instruments are...

...Handbook on Basics of Financial Markets NATIONAL STOCK EXCHANGE OF INDIA LIMITED Basics of Financial Markets What is Investment? The money you earn is partly spent and the rest saved for meeting future expenses. Instead of keeping the savings idle you may like to use savings in order to get return on it in the future. This is called Investment. Why should one invest? One needs to invest to: earn return on your idle resources generate a specified sum of money for a specific goal in life make a provision for an uncertain future One of the important reasons why one needs to invest wisely is to meet the cost of Inflation. Inflation is the rate at which the cost of living increases. The cost of living is simply what it costs to buy the goods and services you need to live. Inflation causes money to lose value because it will not buy the same amount of a good or a service in the future as it does now or did in the past. For example, if there was a 6% inflation rate for the next 20 years, a Rs. 100 purchase today would cost Rs. 321 in 20 years. This is why it is important to consider inflation as a factor in any long-term investment strategy. Remember to look at an investment’s ‘real’ rate of return, which is the return after inflation. The aim of investments should be to provide a return above the inflation rate to ensure that the investment does not decrease in value. For example, if the annual inflation rate is 6%, then the investment will need to earn more than 6% to ensure it increases...

...history of the capital market in India dates back to the eighteenth century, one of the oldest in Asia; When East India Company securities were traded in the country. Until the end of the nineteenth century securities trading was unorganized and the main trading centres were Mumbai and Calcutta. Of the two, Bombay was the chief trading centre wherein bank shares were the major trading stock During the American Civil War (1860-61). Bombay was an important source of supply for cotton. Hence, trading activities flourished during the period, resulting in a boom in share prices. This boom, the first in the history of the Indian capital market lasted for a half a decade. The bubble burst on July 1, 1865 when there was tremendous slump in share prices. Trading was at that time limited to a dozen brokers; their trading place was under a banyan tree in front of the Town hall in Mumbai. These stock brokers organized informal association in 1897 – Native Shares and Stock Brokers Association, Bombay. The Stock exchanges in Calcutta ad Ahmedabad also industrial and trading centers, came up later. The Bombay Stock Exchange was recognized in May 1927 under the Bombay Securities Contracts Control Act, 1925. The capital market was not well organized and developed during the British rule because the British government was not interested in the economic growth of the country. As a result many foreign companies depended on the London capital market for funds rather than in the Indian capital market...

...1. INTRODUCTION TO DERIVATIVES While, trading in derivatives products has grown tremendously in recent times, the earliest evidence of these types of instruments can be traced back to ancient Greece. Even though derivatives have been in existence in some form or the other since ancient times, the advent of modern day derivatives contracts is attributed to farmers’ need to protect themselves against a decline in crop prices due to various economic and environmental factors. Thus, derivatives contracts initially developed in commodities. The first “futures” contracts can be traced to the Yodoya rice market in Osaka, Japan around 1650. The origin of derivatives can be traced back to the need of farmers to protect themselves against fluctuations in the price of their crop. From the time it was sown to the time it was ready for harvest, farmers would face price uncertainty. Through the use of simple derivative products, it was possible for the farmer to partially or fully transfer price risks by locking-in asset prices. These were simple contracts developed to meet the needs of farmers and were basically a means of reducing risk. A farmer who sowed his crop in June faced uncertainty over the price he would receive for his harvest in September. In years of scarcity, he would probably obtain attractive prices. However, during times of oversupply, he would have to dispose off his harvest at a very low price. Clearly this meant that the farmer and his family were exposed...

...– 1 STOCK & EQUITY MARKET GLOBAL INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT | 1 INTRODUCTION ABOUT STOCK AND EQUITY MARKET GLOBAL INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT | 2 1.1 What is Stock ? In finance, a stock represents a share in the ownership of an incorporated company. In Industrial societies wealth used in production is owned in the aggregate mostly by Corporations rather than by individuals because of the huge investments required. This trend began in 17th-century England when merchants formed JOINT-STOCK COMAPNIES, pooling capital to be used jointly in trading and manufacturing. Participants then received dividends, shares of the common PROFIT proportionate to their original investments. The Definition of a Stock : Plain and simple, stock is a share in the ownership of a company. Stock represents a claim on the company’s assets and earnings. As you acquire more stock, your ownership stake in the company becomes greater. Whether you say shares, equity, or stock, it all means the same thing. The wealth of individuals includes claims against, or investments in, corporations. These are called securities, the two most common being bonds and stocks. Corporate bonds are evidences of corporate debt to the bondholder. Stocks are evidences of ownership, or equity. GLOBAL INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT | 3 Investors buy stock in the hope that it will yield income from dividends and appreciate, or grow, in value. 1.2 History of Stock Market Indian Stock Markets...

...1971, freeing exchange rates to fluctuate. Less developed countries like India began opening up their economies and allowing prices to vary with market conditions. Price fluctuations make it hard for businesses to estimate their future production costs and revenues. 2 Derivative securities provide them a valuable set of tools for managing this risk. This article describes the evolution of Indian derivatives markets, the popular derivatives instruments, and the main users of derivatives in India. I conclude by assessing the outlook for Indian derivatives markets in the near and medium term. 2. Definition and Uses of Derivatives A derivative security is a financial contract whose value is derived from the value of something else, such as a stock price, a commodity price, an exchange rate, an interest rate, or even an index of prices. In the Appendix, I describe some simple types of derivatives: forwards, futures, options and swaps. Derivatives may be traded for a variety of reasons. A derivative enables a trader to hedge some...
