  Founded in 1989 as the UBC Finance Club, the UBC Finance Association is a finance-oriented student organization at the University of British Columbia (Vancouver). Our aim is to bridge the gap between students and the financial industry by providing our members with access to professional networking events, social gatherings, career building opportunities, as well as educational workshops and competitions. It is our hope to be able to build a community of likeminded members from all faculties who share a common passion and interest for learning about finance, no matter their level of knowledge. Annual events include our Wine & Cheese, the National Investment Banking Competition & Conference, and the Pacific Venture Capital Competition & Conference. Show less



UBC Trading Group

  • Jun 2010 - Present

  The UBC Trading Group is a student group established in March 2011 to bring together retail investors and traders within the UBC community and beyond. It was co-founded by Bryan Nguyen and Michael Kim, Sauder School of Business students, with the mission of being able to inspire and self-motivate students to learn to look at the markets daily, read the news regularly, and potentially gain the confidence to invest their own money. Our mission statement is as follows: “To supplement and facilitate the learning process of trading or investing in the capital markets.” With a UBC TG membership, through the events and services we hold, we have the #1 priority of providing members with a community of students and professionals to aid and support investment education. From student directed seminars to UBC Trading Floors, this is our first step to providing executive to student level service. Show less
