McGill International Portfolio Challenge (MIPC)
November 04, 2023

The MIPC is the leading international buy-side finance challenge for university students addressing pertinent socio-economic issues. It is a forum for thought that brings together a diverse cohort of world-class students and industry leaders, bridging the gap between academia and practitioners.

Description
The MIPC focuses on addressing societal issues which large, institutional investors play a critical role in. Our cases center on solving these issues through innovative portfolio strategies that satisfy the needs of a broad range of stakeholders with competing interests.

We encompass much more than a traditional case competition, including mentoring and recruitment opportunities as well as speaker and information sessions with over 20 leading institutional investors.
