As part of our commitment to the community and corporate social responsibility, Farringdon is committed to running training seminars with local schools and universities.

This year Farringdon Malaysia ran a four week training program with Taylors University College in Subang Jaya.

Our Chief Analyst taught the four 1 hour classes which were attended by over 50 students.

The classes revolved around the following subjects:

1. General Introduction To Investments
2. Macroeconomic Principals behind Investment
3. Principals of Portfolio Construction
4. Investment Analysis

At the end of the program the students took part in a portfolio management contest. Each student was tasked to create a balanced portfolio based on $100,000.

The competition was won by Chong Pei Lin. She generated a return of 1.9% in 4 weeks.
