Top 5 Articles of the Year – Editors’ Pick
Over the year 2024, we have shared eleven articles through Investment Voices. Here are five of our editors’ favourites:
Many students are familiar with the allure of a career in investment banking, but that is only a small fraction of the investment management eco-system. In this series, we explore different players in the investment management eco-system. Stay tuned for the upcoming articles in this series in 2025.
In May 2024 we co-hosted a CV workshop with UNIT USYD. During the workshop we observed that many students excelled in filling their CV with volunteering, extracurricular activities, internships and so on. However, to make those experiences stand out during your interviews, it is crucial to reflect on them effectively.
In 2024 we continued our asset class series, covering infrastructure, private debt and private equity. While it’s hard to pick a favourite among these insightful blogs from industry experts, we’d like to highlight this private equity primer. Why? Because CFA Institute now provides a Certificate in Private Equity!
At year end, it’s always fascinating to reflect on our initial outlooks and compare them with how the markets actually unfolded. What was your view on inflation at the beginning of the year? Looking ahead, will a soft landing soon become a reality?
Having a detailed multi-year checklist is invaluable for planning your university life towards your goals. If your goal is to be successful in a finance career, particularly in investment management, you can’t miss this year-by-year guidance from CFA Institute.
