Students from the Master of Applied Finance and Wealth Management (MFWM) program participated in a dynamic inter-programme Oxford-style debate hosted at SP Jain School of Global Management, Mumbai. The competition brought together postgraduate and undergraduate cohorts for two intellectually rigorous rounds centred on pressing global themes.
The debates examined critical questions shaping today’s economic and geopolitical landscape; from whether India’s growth is best driven by self-reliance or global partnerships, to whether BRICS represents a geopolitical statement more than an economic alliance.
What stood out was how quickly MFWM students stepped into the shoes of economists and analysts, bringing nuance, depth, and analytical weight to every statement and rebuttal. Their arguments reflected structured reasoning, real-time critical evaluation, and the ability to contextualise global developments with financial insight.
The format demanded not only persuasive communication but also disciplined listening and evidence backed responses, qualities essential for leadership in global finance and wealth management.
The event served as a valuable platform for cross-programme engagement, reinforcing the MFWM cohort’s commitment to informed debate, research-driven insights, and professional discourse.
