In the Challenge, held on February 27, 2021 a team of students from AUD, Alexandru Godeanu, Maria Eldin, Mohammad Khoory, Richelle Soni and Suryansh Chaudhary, received second place in the annual global competition.

The CFA Institute Research Challenge provides university students with hands-on mentoring and intensive training in financial analysis and professional ethics. Each student is tested on their analytical, valuation, report writing, and presentation skills. They gain real-world experience as they assume the role of a research analyst.

We are delighted that our amazing AUD team got second place in this competition in the UAE with a high grade. We congratulate them and wish them the best in their future careers! Dr. Burcu Kapar, Associate Professor of Finance and the faculty advisor to the students.
