The Financial Modernization Act /(FMA) of 1999 permits banks, securities firms, and insurance companies to combine and compete with each other in all types of financial services. No longer are the names of ®nancial institutions synonymous with their particular products. This suggests moving from an ``institutional perspective'' that focuses upon the historical specializations of institutions, to a ``functional perspective'' that focuses upon the value added by ®nancial services. The functional approach offers the finance curriculum a broad and ̄exible methodology for covering Financial services. Copyright 2001 Elsevier Science Inc. All rights reserved.
