Setting the Standard for
Financial Adaptive Skills
Finance Forum of India is a certification and assessment body for financial skills. Since 2000, FFOI has set the standards, built the assessments and awarded the certifications that connect learners with the finance industry.
OUR ORIGIN
26 Years, One Standard
Finance Forum of India was established in 2000 at S. P. Jain Institute of Management and Research (SPJIMR), Mumbai, under the initiative of Dr. A. K. Sengupta, then Director of SPJIMR. It was created to give India’s finance education a common measure: a standard that tells learners, institutions and employers what financial capability looks like.
Today FFOI is a Section 8 organisation registered with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs. It operates independently of the Government of India, and its standards, assessments and certification decisions rest with FFOI alone.
