Introduction

Financial markets do not operate in isolation. Movements in one asset class often influence others through macroeconomic forces, investor behaviour, and market cycles. For professionals involved in investment, advisory, or market-linked roles, understanding these interconnections is essential. This program helps participants build a holistic view of financial markets by connecting major asset classes, interpreting cross-market signals, and understanding how economic and market dynamics drive asset performance and allocation decisions.
