Desautels Capital Management Inc. (DCM) is Canada鈥檚 first university-owned, student-run, licensed and regulated investment firm with assets totaling $9M. Established in 2009, Desautels Capital Management offers students a distinctive hands-on experience in asset management, equipping them for a seamless transition into the workforce.
成人VR视频 Desautels also offers a plethora of social events designed to propel students' careers.聽Drawing from the strengths of the Desautels Global Experts (DGE), a group of over 100 seasoned industry leaders, students benefit from regular guest lectures, informal networking events, and company visits.
The first two funds are managed by the Honours in Investment Management (HIM) students and the latter by MMF students. Each fund has a team of student-analysts, led by a strategist. Students are guided by experienced faculty members and by the Desautels Global Experts (DGE) with expertise in investment management.
The Alpha Squared Equity Fund was launched in January 2017 to provide MMF students with real-world investment management experience. MMF students work as Analysts for DCM and are responsible for all elements of the $1-million Fund, including research, trade execution, portfolio and risk management, compliance, and settlement. The Fund uses a combination of top-down macroeconomic views, bottom-up fundamental valuation, and quantitative analysis. The MMF's rigorous curriculum provides students with the necessary skills to become effective managers, and students are further mentored by DCM's Chief Investment Officer, Prof. Vadim di Pietro.

The Desautels Faculty has introduced a new fund dedicated to Socially Responsible Investing (SRI) under Desautels Capital Management (DCM) 鈥 a student-run, registered investment management firm.
The newly introduced SRI fund will allow students to consider environmental, social, and governance criteria in the investment process more profoundly in order to underline the centrality of corporate social responsibility (CSR) in industry.
鈥淪ocial responsibility is becoming more and more important to our investors and it鈥檚 also something that our students are very passionate about,鈥 said Vadim di Pietro, Associate Professor of Finance and Chief Investment Officer at DCM.
For Paul Barnett, Managing Director at Ulysses Management, DCM effectively equips students with not only the knowledge about important issues like CSR, but also the skills to make an impact in the workplace.
鈥淭he hands-on experience that DCM offers is essential. Experiences that simulate the work environment allow new graduates to hit the ground running and make immediate contributions to their employer,鈥 affirms Barnett.
If industry members can already attest to the value of the DCM experience, di Pietro sees the introduction of the SRI fund as a further step in the right direction: 鈥淎bove all else, we must continue to meet our responsibility as an educational institution to prepare future financial leaders with a strong sense of community, business ethics and personal integrity.鈥
