Berkshire students show business sense
|
A group of students based at the University of Reading have come first in an international trading competition held in Canada.
The four-strong team from the University's International Capital Market Association (ICMA) Centre used their business brains to beat 37 other teams to the title. "This is a major achievement and reflects the success of our applied approach to teaching finance," said Dr Michael Smith, dealing room director at the ICMA Centre. He added: "The centre has produced students of the highest quality who are, in terms of their practical usefulness to an investment bank, far ahead of those who have had a more traditional theoretical finance education." John Board, director of the ICMA Centre, commented: "This win is especially welcome in light of the recent £5m million donation to the University of Reading from The International Capital Market Association (ICMA) to fund further development of the ICMA Centre. "This development will include a new state-of-the-art 50-station dealing room which will further enhance the ICMA Centre’s practical edge in finance education." Gordon Marshall, vice-chancellor of the University of Reading, added that the win "highlights the University of Reading's ability to produce some of the best finance graduates in Europe". It was a sweet win for those at the centre, having finished third and second respectively in the past two years. |
