Hi, we're the Investment Society.
What do we do?
Virtual Money Funds
We have created an investment fund which you can help us manage, regardless of your experience. You will have the opportunity to pitch stocks for the fund each semester. This is an excellent opportunity to build your CV, especially for those wishing to work for a hedge fund, investment bank or asset manager. As part of this, we post monthly reports on stock markets and the performance of our fund.
Education
The Society encourages those to pursue the Bloomberg markets Concept Certification. This is a free certification available to all Society members covering economic inducators, fixed income, currencies and equities.
Career Benefits & Prospects
Workshops - CV/Cover Letter/LinkedIn - if you're confused about anything, please reach out and we will try to make it happen.
Internship and Graduate Opportunities - Companies often let us know about opportunities to work for them or visit them, and you'll be the first to know.
Socials & Trips
We hit the town at least once a month, and when we do, it's always special - expect VIP and lots and lots of vodka.
Annual Trip - in previous years we have visited Berlin, Budapest and Prague. We will plan a trip abroad for next year if restrictions allow, alternatively we may organise a domestic trip.
If you are interested in joining please find us on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/groups/HWUTIC/).
If you have any questions, feel free to contact any of the society committee members.
