A team of 6 students from Fudan MBA won the 2nd place in the Security Analysis Prize of the 5th Global Network Investment Competition on February 7.
Each year, to participate in the competition hosted by the the Yale School of Management, students team up from the top business schools around the world and select five investment ideas from their home markets.
As for the Security Analysis Live Pitch Competition, each team submits a written pitch for one stock in its portfolio first, and the finalists get to compete virtually in front of a panel of judges through a video conference. They are then evaluated on four criteria: quality of stock analysis and research, investment thesis, presentation skills, and the quality of a question-and-answer session by the judges.
The 2019-2020 Global Network Investment Competition gathered 24 student teams from 16 schools including Fudan School of Management, Yale School of Management, National University of Singapore Business School, Seoul National University Business School and IE Business School Spain.
Named Wujiaochang Alliance, the Fudan MBA team was formed by Lu Jing and Zhu Zhuxuan from the 2018 MBA program, Zhang Can and Qiu Juanhui from the 2019 MBA program, and Wu Manhong and Li Hongpu from the 2019 IMBA program. Their tutor was Professor Huang Jianbing, who has extensive experience in consulting for start-ups and has also led the Fudan team last year to win the 2nd place of Performance Prize in the Global Network Investment Competition.
Team Wujiaochang Alliance pitched the stock of Yantai Jereh Oilfield Services Group for the Security Analysis Live Pitch Competition, and won for the second time in this part of the Global Network Investment Competition for the Fudan MBA team. This is especially amazing during the infection prevention period of the novel coronoravirus, under the impact of which the team members had to connect online individually from their homes rather than gathering together to join the video conference in front of the panel of judges.
