Palm Beach Atlantic University's student run portfolio created to share ideas and investment strategies.
The Palm Beach Atlantic University Investment Club was founded by students for students, based on three principles: faith in professionalism, increasing knowledge, and exercising self-discipline. The club provides a venue for students to gain experience through practical application outside the classroom while developing a deeper understanding of financial markets. In addition, the Investment Club seeks to provide members with tangible exposure and skill development to further prepare for a career in financial services.
Variety enriches the Investment Club; it is comprised of students not just from many different majors but also from diverse geographic and cultural background as well as experience levels. The members operate in teams with assigned market sectors. Each team’s sector specific book is then pooled to form the club’s total book. Seeking to provide market neutral returns, the Investment Club emphasizes risk management and liquidity in oversight of all market exposures. This strategy mirrors prominent funds and bears similarity to the US Long-Only Fund.
