Finesse

The Official Finance Club of IMT Ghaziabad

Finesse, The Official Finance Club of IMT Ghaziabad, is a student-driven initiative which aims to foster an environment of collaboration and knowledge transfer related to finance within the IMT student community. The club organizes activities and events related to the domain of finance and seeks to provide students who aspire to build a career in finance with opportunities to learn and excel. 

The Centre for Financial Markets (CFM) was founded in August 2023 as a collaborative initiative between Finesse and IMT Ghaziabad. The Centre for Financial Markets will be a catalyst for research, academic excellence and a medium for collaboration between students, faculty, alumni and industry experts in the field of financial services and financial markets  

The club actively works to develop a culture of investing and portfolio management through the New Fund Offering (NFO). The New Fund Offering is an in-house equity research and investment team which manages a fund for the student community at IMT, by conducting research in the Indian equity markets. 

Finesse is committed to building a learning ecosystem for the domain of finance within IMT, through peer-to-peer tutoring sessions, dedicated sector reports, a monthly finance magazine and many other knowledge offerings. The club also partners with industry experts and brings opportunities to learn through expert talks, workshops and panel discussions. 

Some of the landmark events or competitions that Finesse organizes are: 

  • RISCON –  The Annual Finance Fest at IMT Ghaziabad comprises of two events: 

Portfolio Management Challenge: The participating teams analyze Indian equities and develop mock portfolios. The portfolio is to be managed over a period of 15 days and the team with the highest valued portfolio at the end of the period is declared the winner. 

Equity Research Challenge: Teams compete by conducting thorough equity research and developing buy/sell recommendations for a given company. 

  • Prastaav – The Investment Pitch Competition provides teams with the opportunity to make an investment pitch based on the equity research of stocks within a given country. The team with the most comprehensive and thorough investment plan which balances risks and return, is adjudged the winner. 
  • Open Outcry is a live trading competition which aims to simulate a 1990s trading experience with trading desks, brokers and live information bulletins. 

Such competitions provide students with the opportunity to develop the necessary skills and strategies to solve real life management problems and also gives them an edge in other reputed competitions such as CFA Research Challenge, Bloomberg Trading Contest, etc. 

In addition to events, Finesse also has certain ongoing resources for finance enthusiasts, such as:
