The 2016 National Investment Banking Conference is being
held on March 23 - 24, 2016, at the Pan Pacific Hotel in Vancouver, British
Columbia. The event includes an investment banking case competition open to all
universities. NIBC’s objective in designing the case and competition process is
to provide students with an authentic investment banking experience.

Competing in the NIBC
allows undergraduate and graduate students to distinguish themselves and attain
international recognition from their peers and senior industry professionals.
Competitors will utilize and develop corporate finance analysis, financial
modeling, and pitching skills which are essential for a successful career in
investment banking.
This year, 25
undergraduate and 25 graduate teams from the initial 335 teams were invited to
advance to the Final Round of the NIBC competition. Teams will be challenged to
analyze an investment banking transaction opportunity and prepare a live
boardroom presentation to a group of investment banking professionals. Dr. David Krause, AIM program director said, "We are honored to again advance to the final round of the NIBC - the universities that compete are the top undergraduate and graduate business schools in the world. I know our team will be highly competitive. This is a very talented group of students who are all headed into careers in investment banking and capital markets."
In only their 2nd year of competition Marquette
University’s AIM investment banking team was again selected to participate in the NIBC Competition.
This year’s team consists of four seniors: Clermond Jean, Dan Riley, Paul Tran
and Joanne Wycklendt. Jean and Tran were also members of last year’s NIBC team.
We are extremely proud of them and congratulate them on representing Marquette –
best of luck!
