Intro  
 

India is looked upon as one of the most attractive emerging economies of the next decade. It has already witnessed record investments across most sectors. The Indian Banking and Financial Services sector has demonstrated a strong appetite for growth. It can be rightly concluded that the growth of this sector and the Indian economy have become prerequisites for each other. Not surprisingly, the sector has gained the confidence of Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) and Fund Managers. With roaring capital markets and sizeable increase in the per-capita income, the financial services sector is also exhibiting tremendous potential. Given these scenarios, how can PE players get the best out of these opportunities?

Apart from addressing these issues, this conference also attempts to examine the opportunities emanating from further developing financial exchanges, NBFCs, microfinance, investment banking and structured finance in India . This conference is a common platform for all the relevant stakeholders, including legal, regulatory, advisory and fund managers
