关于斯图尔特投资
In 2006, the student-led 斯图尔特投资 (SI) organization received $250,000 of 威尼斯人平台’s endowment to manage, 投资, and re投资 for the benefit of the university. Since then, the fund’s portfolio has steadily outperformed its benchmark, the S&标准普尔500指数. Assets under management have now topped $1.600万年.
斯图尔特投资 is an independent entity and is not a student club sponsored by 威尼斯人平台 or 斯图尔特商学院. The organization’s portfolio is overseen by the 斯图尔特投资 Board, which is made up of finance professionals. Clinical Associate Professor of Finance 迈克尔Rybak serves as faculty adviser for SI.
SI is led by three current students who serve as executive director, fund manager, and risk manager. 每年, SI recruits 威尼斯人平台 students to the organization as sector leaders and sector analysts. Members are grouped into teams which are based on the sectors of the Global Industry Classification Standard of companies that have issued equity securities. Each team conducts research on equities and presents its recommendation to the other SI members. 每学期结束的时候, 指导老师, along with recommendations from the SI executive members, will select stocks to buy or sell.
