Beschreibung

This year again, CFA Society Switzerland will be hosting the CFA Institute Research Challenge in Switzerland which is the local competition within the global CFA Institute Research Challenge. We also welcome all other universities and especially universities of applied sciences in Switzerland and Liechtenstein to join the Challenge this year.

The Challenge is an annual competition between teams of students in preparing an investment case consisting of a detailed research report and a presentation of a listed Swiss company. For the coming competition Straumann has been selected. The Swiss company is headquartered in Basel and listed at the Swiss Stock exchange since 1998. Straumann is a global leader in implant, restorative and regenerative dentistry which offers products and services to dentists and dental laboratories in more than 70 countries world-wide.

The students will be supported by industry mentors and will have to present their final results in front of a panel of senior investment professionals. The Challenge provides students with a unique opportunity to gain first-hand experience in the investment world and to interact intensively with investment professionals and CFA charterholders.
