SP Jain School of Global Management, a leading India’s private business school has introduced the latest postgraduate management program -  Master of Applied Finance and Wealth Management (MFWM). The objective of this intensive 12-month, full-time program is to equip students for high-impact careers in the fast-growing disciplines of investment advice, wealth management, and fintech-facilitated finance. Training talent is presently in short supply.

SP Jain Global will offer this program at its Mumbai and Dubai campuses. This will be an an outstanding opportunity for the students to begin their program at India’s financial capital - Mumbai and finish at the Middle East capital for banking and finance - Dubai. Upon the completion of the program, the students will earn a 12-month Australian degree. The total fee for the program is ₹25.61 Lakhs. Term one in Mumbai will cost ₹8.26 Lakhs and term two in Dubai will cost 20,400 USD. 

The constant evolution of the financial services sector, particularly within the areas of fintech, automation and data-driven investment methods has led to the creation of the MFWM curriculum.  It provides students with a comprehensive insight into client portfolio building, risk and insurance consultation, tax planning, real estate and retirement plans, financial engineering, and sophisticated wealth management instruments such as structured products by blending the principles of applied finance with intensive wealth management training. 

In addition to these core topics, the curriculum provides a focused study of emerging topics such as Islamic finance, green and sustainable investing and the growing use of robo-advisory platforms. Through case-based learning, industry engagement, and real-world project work, students will also gain essential client-facing and advising skills.  This applied approach aims to bridge the gap that currently exists between academic theory and the realities of wealth management around the world. Investment Managers, Adviser Wealth Managers, Wealth Advisors, Consultants, Financial Planners, Private Bankers, Relationship Managers, Risk Analysts, Compliance Officers, Portfolio Managers and Estate Planners are among the career paths open to the MFWM graduate.

The admissions for the MFWM program will commence in October 2025. Applicants for the program must have a bachelor's degree from a recognised university. The degree should preferably be in areas such as commerce, finance, business, mathematics or any other discipline that deals with numbers. Also, other students who are interested in applying are eligible if they possess one of the following scores: a GMAT score of 650 and above, a GRE score of 320 and above (within the past 5 years) or a CAT percentile of 80 or more (within the past 2 years).
