What do you believe are the greatest challenges facing the sector or industry you would like to specialize in at IE? What role do you hope to be able to play in this sector or industry in the medium term?
The Financial Sector is a very dynamic industry, and the financial innovations have totally changed the face of the industry. However, this sector also faces major challenges, be it a country specific problem or the recent global crisis.
According to me, the recent Global Economic Crisis is the biggest challenge the financial sector is going through.
What started out as an AMERICAN problem in 2008 has spread like a GLOBAL epidemic .
The crisis became an ECONOMIC crisis but started in the FINANCIAL sector.
As the common saying goes, “When America sneezes, rest of the world catches a cold” became a Reality.
