The Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP) organised an educational seminar for the M Com students of University of Sargodha (Gujranwala campus). The seminar held at the SECP Head Office under its campaign "Jamapunji" which has been launched to create awareness for safe investments.
The aim was to build the capacity of students in the area of Capital markets and its related products. The initial session focused on the introduction of the SECP as the apex regulator of Non-Banking Financial Sector followed by its role and functions, whereas, the later part covered the significance of savings and personal financial planning for the students. The students were told about the need for inculcating the habit of saving at an early stage. They were also made familiar with different financial products and services available in Pakistan.
The SECP's initiative was very well received by the faculty and particularly by the students who actively participated in the interactive session and asked for more such events. Possibilities of collaboration in the areas of research and curriculum development were also discussed. The session was concluded on the closing remarks by the SECP Commissioner Akif Saeed who emphasised on the students to work hard in their academic careers and build a strong base for their professional careers. He also appreciated the efforts of the faculty members for taking interest in the grooming of their students. In the end the faculty members thanked SECP for organising the seminar.-PR
