Student Enhancement
- EAF Investment Competition (AY2019/20)
Our Department launched the first EAF Investment Competition in Semester One to promote BBA students’ interests in investment and financial markets. A total of 18 teams participated in and started their simulated trading and investing activities in early September. After seven 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 would be the ultimate champion of the competition. There were just a few points of difference among the winners. Finally, we announced the winners as follows:
