2011-2012 CFA Institute Research Challenge

In collaboration with the CFA Society of Atlanta, our society will be participating in this year’s 2011-2012 CFA Institute Research Challenge. The CFA Institute Research Challenge is a global competition which tests the analytic, valuation, report writing, and presentation skills of university students. Last year nearly 2,500 students from over 546 universities in 45 countries participated and learned best practices in equity research from leading industry experts.

 Local CFA societies host and launch local competitions involving teams of three to five business and finance students from participating universities who work directly with a local company in researching and preparing a company analysis. The following SC schools will be participating in this year’s challenge: Wofford College, Coastal Carolina University, College of Charleston, and The Citadel. If you are a potential sponsor, student, or professor and have questions please contact David Allison at david@allinvmgt.com
