Hi Quant FS'ers
I'd like to bring your attention to an event that some of you may be interested in attending, the 2009 Rotman International Trading Competition.
The event will be held in Toronto, Canada on February 19th-21st, 2009. It's a 2.5 day event where teams of 4 students representing each of their schools will trade in 5 different mock-trading cases involving equities, fixed income and commodities.
With over $15,000 in prizes and 40 top schools from around the World participating, the event is a great opportunity to showcase your talent. Representatives from our sponsors: BP's Houston & Calgary energy trading desks, CIBC's algorithmic/portfolio trading desk, and the CFA institute will be there actively recruiting top talent.
The competition runs on the Rotman Interative Trader platform that's used at over 20 universities around the world, including Baruch. The cases are custom designed each year to challenge the participants in different market sectors. For more information, please visit our website at : Rotman Financial Research & Trading Lab
If you're interested in forming a team, please contact myself: financelab@rotman.utoronto.ca or the event coordinator, Laura McDiarmid at: RITC@rotman.utoronto.ca
Cheers,
