Dr. David Krause, AIM program director stated that, "For
the 10th time in the past 12 years, Marquette University will again be headed
to the Americas round of the CFA Investment Research Challenge. To be clear,
this is not easy – the competition is intense, and the quality of presentations
continues to improve each year."
Universities and colleges that participated in the local two
Wisconsin CFA Research Challenges included:
- Carroll University
- Carthage College
- Milwaukee School of Engineering
- Marquette University (2 teams)
- UW-Eau Claire
- UW-Madison
- UW-Milwaukee
- UW-Oshkosh
- UW-Whitewater (2 teams)
According to Dr. Krause, “This marks the 12th year of AIM’s
participation in the CFA Investment Research Challenge. Our past teams have
enjoyed great success, and each former team member echoes the value of their
experience. We hosted two teams who were both excellent representatives of the
AIM program - and, in fact, they were both in the running for 1st place – I was
very uncertain of the judges’ outcome."
