How Is This Competition Helpful?
"I spent most of my time in high school and college doing a lot of similar investment competitions like the Boston Global Investment Competition, and I think it's what prepared me the most to have a job on Wall Street picking stocks for our clients."
"The Boston Global Investment Competition (BGIC) is a unique opportunity for students to collaborate with each other and improve their understanding of financial markets."
"BGIC is also a place where they can get real-world feedback from professional investors and really hone those skills. It puts themselves out there to gain more confidence when it comes to understanding investments.as well as more confidence in their writing and their ability to present these ideas to investors."
