Investment Management Program (IMP)

The Investment Management Program has been instrumental in developing my skills in managing real money portfolios. This experience has allowed me to cultivate a keen sense of responsibility and has also provided me with the opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals who share a passion for finding truth in an adaptive industry.
