"The brand equity of Indian financial markets is the surge of the indigenous enterprise in the design and development of modern financial markets. Financial Technologies has played a pioneering role in creating state-of-the-art architecture that made financial markets inclusive and efficient to penetrate the length and breadth of the country.

FOFM 2012

Markets are the major drivers that support economic growth. Markets bestow economies with allocative efficiency, transactional intensity, process enhancement, enterprise, and entrepreneurial development that could enable policy to play a proactive role in economic development.

The Financial Technologies Group has set standards in conceptualising and developing state-of-the-art financial market architecture, creating extensive exchange industry infrastructure across the developing world, and pioneering technology interventions in Indian capital markets. The Group believes in promoting and generating ideas on creating and developing markets that help nations pursue growth strategies on the premise of inclusion, empowerment, and stability.

Future of Financial Markets is the annual summit conceptualised by the Financial Technologies Group, which is devoted to generate the best of ideas and thinking on how to bring markets closer to the people and play a useful role in their progress.

Reflections
HE K Sankaranarayanan
Governor of Maharashtra
“The FOFM platform brings together leaders, visionaries and experts from regulatory bodies, financial markets and industry leaders and is best suited to help shape the future of financial markets. The Summit is of great significance as it receives patronage not only from prominent experts in India but also from leaders of emerging economies.”
FOFM 2010/11
Reflections
Dr Saumitra Chaudhuri
Member, Planning Commission India
“The world is witnessing a change in incremental demand and there is a complete shift in demand to the emerging economies. Asia should ensure availability of commodities to fuel economic growth, maintain macro-economic stability and discipline, and understand global market scenario.”
FOFM 2010/11
Reflections
Hitoshi Shimoyama
Chief Executive Officer
Mizuho Securities
“Asia is home to the fastest growing economies of the world. It is critical for commodities as it contributes to 50 percent of worldwide production and consumption. A growing number of physical traders and commodity trading companies necessitate hedging, price discovery and credit risk mitigation. A pan-Asian commodity exchange can fill this void and create an integrated financial ecosystem.”
FOFM 2010/11
Reflections
Lord Meghnad Desai
Professor, London School of Economics
“India’s economic priorities in the globalised world will be to develop India’s financial markets and strengthen financial systems by simplifying regulation, privatizing public sector enterprises, steering towards full rupee convertibility, allowing full access to global financial flows and optimizing on key investment opportunities.”
FOFM 2010/11
Reflections
Larry Pressler
Senator, United States
“The focus of emerging markets post-financial crisis is financial stability. Here in India, the RBI and other regulatory bodies played a pivotal role in ensuring financial stability by putting in place traditional models and methods. A well-defined opportunity lies for cross-learning between the US and India as India’s banking system is extremely robust. The US can learn from the dynamism and risk management of Indian banking system. On the other hand, India can learn from the market-driven growth and developmental model established by the US.”
