MOHALI: The University School of Management Studies of the Rayat Bahra University (RBU) here today organized an expert talk on Investor Awareness. Prof Amogh Gothoskar, a well known financial trainer, was the speaker.
Prof Gothoskar said investor awareness is a term used in investor relations, by public companies and similar bodies, to describe how well their investors, and the investment market in general, know their business.
Its significance is that investors are expected to base their investment decisions on awareness and knowledge, and a lack of these may lead to a low profile amongst its peers in the market (i.e. competing businesses and investment opportunities), to the detriment of the business.
He apprised the students and staff of the importance of money and how money is managed. He spoke about how savings were different from investments and how to be financially well off.
