Pratishtha gained an understanding on how other countries manage their currencies and how the Canadian government in particular, manages its funds in order to best serve the residents of the country. Her ultimate goal was to asses the Bank of Canada’s currency systems and to gain more knowledge regarding services given to individuals as well as to private banks.<\/p>\n
