About:

FinX is a two days event with the focus of making young professionals aware of personal finance. The program is specifically designed for recent graduates and people who are below 30 years of age. As this age group has a high-risk appetite with no liabilities and they have room for some financial experiments.

Our aim through FinX is to give young professional exposure to all the financial products available in the market and how they can use these products for their financial growth.

We believe “Information” alone is not enough, teaching “How to” will be the game changers. At FinX, you’ll be learning from instructors who have practiced what they are teaching.

Here are event details:

Day 1:

💰Session 1: Manish Bhattacharya(Personal Finance Evangelist, TEDx speaker)

Manish is a personal finance evangelist and Founder in Residence at Entrepreneur First. He has been writing about personal finance since late 2016 on Quora, Medium, and spoke about the same on World Quora Meetup 2018 and TEDx IET Lucknow 2019.

He is a strong believer of Financial Independence and Retire Early (FIRE). As it gives you the freedom to choose your work (if you don’t want to work, that’s okay too!). He started working in the college with an educational loan and achieved financial independence at the age of 27.

💸Session 2: Anushka, Ayush & Urvin

These 3 Ashoka Economics Alumni came together with the hope of eradicating the fear around Finance in people's minds and give them the necessary tools to start their personal finance journey as early as possible.

They realized that even the "educated" folks don't make financially sound decisions because they are either misinformed, uninformed, or too overwhelmed to even try and be informed.

So far, they have curated and conducted 2 webinars for over 200 folks and discussed topics like understanding cash flows, savings, financial planning, and mutual funds. They hope to continue growing this community of learning junkies who can support one another to make financially sound decisions.

They will cover the following topics:

Anushka was a management consultant for two years where she worked on 5 diverse projects ranging from growth planning, sales and profit improvements, due diligence assignments for international investors etc. Anushka is currently a Teach for India Fellow as she is intrigued by how people learn. She strongly believes that with the right pedagogical interventions financial literacy can be made fun and accessible to all.

Urvin is an Ex-Corporate Banker (co-managed debt relationships worth $300 mil), CFA L2 and currently an Entrepreneur In Residence at Plaksha University. During his Machine Learning fellowship he has worked on AI solutions to democratise financial products & explored algorithmic trading. Given his personal experiences, he believes in democratizing financial knowledge and products by making them simpler for everyone.

Ayush is a self-taught equity investor who is currently working with a PMS firm which invests in the small and mid cap equity space. Being a behavioural finance enthusiast, he is interested in exploring how our behaviour and emotions affect investing decisions. His aim is to democratise the investing space in India. He is a firm believer of value investing and understands the need of starting early.

Day 2:

He worked as a product head at IIFL financial services, where he created the best stock trading application in the industry. He realized a lot of people want to invest but the initial hurdle of getting the first investment right stops them from getting in the market.
