The University College of the Cayman Islands (UCCI) is proud to announce its victory in the prestigious CFA Institute Research Challenge, Atlantic Islands region. The CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst) Institute is a global association of investment professionals. This notable achievement marks the fourth consecutive win for UCCI, underscoring its commitment to excellence in finance research.
The CFA Institute Research Challenge is an annual, global competition that provides university students with hands-on mentoring and intensive training in financial analysis. Students work in teams to research and analyze a publicly traded company; they write a research report on their assigned company with a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold. The culmination of this effort is a presentation of their research to a panel of industry experts.
This year's challenge saw participation from universities across the Atlantic Islands, with UCCI emerging as the regional champion and taking the position of the number one university for finance/equity research in the region.
