Our keynote speaker Lars Kalbreier,
Head Global Equity & Alternative Research, Credit
Suisse, will speak on “The Future of Financial
Analysis”.
The speech and the award
ceremony will be followed by a reception.
Student teams of 3-5 business and
finance master-level students take the role of financial
analysts over the course of one semester. The teams research a
predetermined publicly traded company and prepare a research
report as well as a presentation with the key finding. In this year's competition, 14 student
teams with over 60 students from 6 universities participated. The
company to be analyzed is the Myriad Group, a leading mobile
sortware company based in Dübendorf, ZH. The students were supported by mentors which are senior members
of our membership base.
The Swiss Investment Research
Challenge is part of the Global Investment Research Challenge,
organized by CFA Institute since 2007.
At the award ceremony, the winners of
this year’s competition will be announced. The winners will
receive a total cash price of CHF 3'000. In addition, the winners
will receive the chance to compete against the winning
universities from the EMEA region in Istanbul in April and may
eventually advance to the international final to be held in Hong Kong.
We kindly acknowledge the support
of Credit Suisse for sponsoring this event and the prize.
