People, don’t sulk. I know it’s a tedious job for professionals (majority, exceptions are always there) to take in new jargon and that too a financial one, in an already overcrowded market, creates a higher degree of pain. But don’t worry, I will try my best to simply the noun which making the rounds of late. I will be elucidating it in a questionnaire/FAQ format, so that an uncluttered view is generated which will help the mango people to comprehend better.
