The Cornell Investment Portfolio Case Competition is an intercollegiate portfolio design competition. It creates awareness of portfolio management careers and facilitates students’ networking. The competition is designed to promote analysis and investment strategy development in private wealth, retirement, endowment\/foundation asset management, portfolio construction and risk management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Each school will send a team of three to four first‑year graduate or 1st–3rd year PhD students to present their investment case and portfolio recommendations to judges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Students will have 10 days to research the case, will make a 10-minute presentation, respond to 10 minutes of questions and are required to provide a two-page summary to judges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Participating students’ resumes will be distributed to past sponsoring firms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two teams from one university may apply and may be selected to attend as long as members of the teams attend different programs and there is sufficient space.<\/p>\n\n\nWho should participate<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
