WIF x SIF Panel 2020
|
On June 20, 2020, WIF hosted a panel with the SAF Student Investment Fund ("SIF"). SIF's main purpose is to provide hands-on experience to second and third-year students (junior and senior analysts). Their objective is to help students learn as much as possible about all things finance and provide students with an expansive network of alumni. They also focus on generating growth of funds and stocks and strive to perform better than the benchmark. The fund was created in 2012, operational in 2013 after an anonymous donation of $250,000, and currently manages an AUM of ~$315,000.
SIF offers many L&G opportunities such as a boot camp that focuses on techniques regarding analyzing a business, generating a thesis, financial modelling, and more. Other L&G initiatives include fireside chats with industry professionals , co-op panels, and mentor call-ins.
