Hi guys, i want your take on the above topic.

Over the past twenty years,derivatives have been seen to be an important study in the field of finance.Options,swaps and futures have been used as a means of price discovery for comodities and as a hedge against risks.the study of FIXED INCOME SECURITIES and DERIVATIVES continues to elude students as they are not taught at universities or even colleges.

If we (CSIA/CFA holdres) are to gradually demutuallise our stock exchange and achieve vision 2030, isnt it in order institutions of higher learning review their syllabus in tune with the changing global market trends?

I know that our capital market is still growing but just like the new costitution that we very well voted for, can't we also amend the law governing financial markets change in line with other emerging markets so that future generations and investors can benefit from a variety of either equity or debt or derivative investment options?

@ extrablessd; NO no, i dont, its merely my vision that the kenyan capital market will be a force to rekon with just like the jse.

i have an interest in investments yet the only university that offers masters investments as of now is KEMU!and they dont teach the above
