Course Overview

The training program offered by AAFM® India addresses the technical and tricky areas that often confuse the candidates. The program prepares you well for the NISM-Series-V-A examination through mentor led videos, well-structured PDFs that work like a personal revision playbook, and concept builders that strengthen weak areas like NAV, TER, loads, suitability, risk measures, product types, and KYC/AML.


Each module ends with key takeaways that clearly tells what to remember for the exam. This structured approach gives quick clarity, focused preparation, and measurable exam results.
