Students work in teams and perform a financial analysis and valuation of a publicly listed Swiss company and present their results according to professional standards. The course develops and reviews the main company valuation methods and is supported by the CFA society in the context of the CFA Institute Research Challenge. The CFA society provides contact to the subject company and a mentor from the financial sector. The output are a research report and a presentation of an investment case (buy, sell, hold). The teams then compete against teams from other Swiss universities.
Target audience:This course targets master students interested in financial analysis and valuation. A prerequisite is prior knowledge in firm valuation (e.g., by having taken Advanced Valuation or an equivalent course). Students who would like to participate in the challenge have to send an email with a recent grade transcript to Lukas Jaeger by September 7th: lukas.jaeger@unibe.ch. Late applications will not be considered. Accepted students will be notified by September 11th, as space is limited.
