Students in the Applied Investment Management (AIM) program at Marquette University are assigned to manage an equity fund during their senior year - either the International Equity or the Small Cap portfolio.The following represents the performance metrics for the AIM International Equity Fund as of 12/31/2015. Students assigned to this fund manage it from April 1 until March 31; thus these results represent the first nine months performance for the AIM Class of 2016.
The metrics and charts presented below are obtained from FactSet, which is the financial data service that is utilized within the AIM program. By clicking on a chart or table it is possible to see a larger individual image.
There are no comments provided below since it is the responsibility of the students in the program during the semester to provide timely written updates of the individual holdings and the overall performance of the portfolio (in this case relative to the benchmark: Russell Global ex-US Index). The students will post on this site their comments when they return from winter break.
Note: the International Equity Fund should be close to sector neutral; however, the students are allowed to over- and underweight regions and countries based on their global macro views.
