The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has made a pitch for including additional financial concepts related to capital markets in school syllabus.

The market regulator said it has followed up with Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) and HRD Ministry on the proposal and has been informed that it would be given due consideration.

“Follow ups with CBSE and Ministry of HRD have been done and as informed by the Ministry, the inclusion of additional financial concepts and a different approach of introducing such concepts shall be duly considered when the process of revising the syllabus and textbooks will be done in 2014-15,” SEBI said.
