FROM THE SIXTH FORM

Investment Club Opportunity

The Eton College and Holyport College Investment Club (ECHCIC) is arguably the pinnacle of investment clubs at any school in the UK. In particular, what separates ECHCIC from other clubs is that actual capital is invested, with real world consequences, as opposed to hypothetical investing that other schools might do.

This opportunity is open to Lower Sixth students who have a passion for, or interest in, investing. The Club is a brilliant networking opportunity for hardworking students who want experience researching and investing real capital in the live market environment. In previous years members have opened the day's trading at the London Stock exchange, raised capital, presented stock reports at Schroders Investment Management company and regularly meet with the members at Eton College and mentors, many of whom are hedge fund managers. Students from Holyport have found the experience invaluable as many have had offers from top universities, and used this network to secure work experience at various investment companies including Goldman Sachs.

If you are interested in applying, please keep a lookout for more information at the start of next term. You can see Polly Pendrich (Executive Committee and Industry Group Leader), or Mr Slyper for more details on how to apply.
