Financial Services Markets and Regulations-himalaya

This book is written with the intention of providing both to the students of this subjects as well as people who wish to understand the financial markets, financial services and the regulations under which these markets work.

There are a lot of people I meet who say that they wish to invest in stocks or mutual funds but do not understand where and how to begin! They also do not know how to get acquainted with these markets. I hope that this book will be useful for them.

The book covers topics like stock markets, Primary and Secondary markets and Mutual Funds. Under financial Services I have covered Housing Finance, Lease and Hire Purchase, Credit Rating etc.
