FGCU Eagle Fund Students compete at the 2022 Student Managed Investment Fund Consortium (SMIFC) Conference held in Chicago on October 6-7.
A first time participant in the conference, FGCU 's Student Managed Investment Fund (aka "Eagle Fund") posted solid 4th place finishes in both the Investment Performance Presentation and Stock Analysis competitions. Congratulations to FGCU student Equity Analysts / Portfolio Managers Paul Reisinger, Paula Beltran Barbosa and Fabrino Cerda Cruz on this impressive accomplishment.
Other highlights of the student conference included presentations on the current Macroeconomic environment, the use of derivatives in Investment Fund Management, and a discussion on the career value of the CMT and CFA charters. The conference concluded with a keynote address by John Rogers, founder and CEO of Ariel Investments, and a visit to the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE).
An amazing time was had by all participating FGCU students and faculty members, and we are looking forward to next year's conference and competitions.
FGCU would like to thank Dr. Tarek Zaher and Indiana State University for their gracious hospitality while hosting the conference.
