Desautels HIM Students Win Harvard Stock Pitch Competition

Desautels Honours in Investment Management students Drew Allen and Philippe Rich won the 2015 Harvard Financial Analysts Symposium. In this competition, students had to present a stock pitch of professional quality to a panel of industry experts. The honours students collected the top prize of $1,000 based on the merits of their investment thesis, rigorous analysis, and in-depth research. Drew and Philippe attribute their success in large part to their experience working as analysts at Desautels Capital Management, McGill's student run investment management firm, where they have been perfecting their stock pitching skills for the past year and a half.
