different products of different financial institutions. Each group is asked to make an investment of
Rs. 20 million in financial products for the duration of 1 year. The objective of the project is to
teach the students how to invest in the most lucrative ways in various financial institutions and
financial products which are discussed during the course. They are also taught how to develop an
investment portfolio while taking not only return into consideration but also risks attached to it.
Thus, the aim was to make a portfolio with highest possible return while hedging the risk the
students were asked to make a portfolio while taking the following markets into consideration:

Each submission will be reviewed and presented with suggested areas for improvement, for more detailed
study in future courses.
At the end of the semester, each group is to present their entire investment plan to the class.
