EAF Investment Competition Prize Presentation cum Sharing

The Economics and Finance Department (EAF) launched the first EAF Investment Competition in Semester one to promote students’ interests in investment and financial markets. A total of 18 teams participated and started their simulated trading and investing activities in early September. After 7 weeks of managing their investment portfolios, five teams with the highest rate of return were shortlisted for the finalist round in which teams were required to prepare a presentation to explain their investment strategies.

Overall, we saw very impressive work. The five finalist teams demonstrated their hard work and well thought out strategies. It was really a hard decision of who is ultimately going to be the champion of the competition. There are just a few points of difference among the winners. Finally, we announced the winners as follow:

Champion:                Bullbear team awarded HK$3,000 cash coupon

1st Runner-up:         HDZ team awarded HK$2,000 cash coupon

2nd Runner-up:        Halia team awarded HK$1,000 cash coupon

Special prize:           Champion and Voyagers teams each team member awarded HK$100 cash coupon

Very well done to all the participating teams!
