London Academy of Trading partners with ExSIF
Last week, the London Academy of Trading formed a partnership with ExSIF, the University of Exeter’s Student Investment Fund, a student-led society that promotes understanding and interest in the world of investing and finance.
Students from across a range of degrees at the university had the opportunity to attend a talk hosted by LAT to learn about trading and understand the importance of networking and investing.
Alastair Craig, Academic Programme Manager at LAT, said: “To provide a truly realistic insight into the world of trading and financial markets, the Exeter students traded on a live platform while incorporating fundamental, macro and technical analysis. Throughout the session we discussed current market drivers and trends, along with what it takes to become a successful trader.”
ExSIP runs bi-weekly stock-picking sessions where members share stock recommendations that they have been keeping an eye on. They can also participate in trading simulations, putting their skills to the test with intra and inter-society trading games.
