The session was held on the morning of 22nd September, 2021, and was attended by around a hundred participants who had registered for the FDP.

Dr Mandal focused on the basics of the time series method which is commonly applied in finance and econometrics. He first discussed the basic elements of a time series and referred to techniques like the moving averages method, exponential smoothing and regression analysis. He then went on to relatively sophisticated areas like unit root testing and cointegration, which find substantial application in academic research.

Several of the participants, which included both academicians and research scholars, had questions which were dealt with by Dr Mandal. Finally the convener of the session thanked Dr. Mandal for being a part of the FDP programme.
