Dr Ioannis Oikonomou and Professor Chris Brooks’ work on the connection between corporate social performance and fixed income securities was recently recognised for its academic rigor and practical significance as its summary was included in the latest issue of CFA Digest, a periodical publication of the CFA Institute (available at this link http://www.cfapubs.org/doi/full/10.2469/dig.v44.n6.8).
A team of five ICMA Centre Students, Richa Patil, Stephane Caps, Peter Bamrud, Andres Acevedo Vega and Bogdan Mihaila, won the CFA Institute Research Challenge UK and moved forward to face off against Europe’s finest in the EMEA Final to win the chance to complete on the global stage.
In response to the ever-evolving role of technology in the shaping the future of the financial world and the UK’s part in leading the global FinTech industry, the ICMA Centre is set to extend its offering in FinTech education.
