    The CFA Institute's Research Challenge is an annual global competition that provides university students with hands-on mentoring and intensive training in financial analysis and professional ethics. Each student is tested on their analytical, valuation, report writing, and presentation skills.

    Once I moved to Prague, I was selected to be part of the team that represents the University of Economics in Prague, and after 3 months of extensive teamwork, my colleagues and I presented our valuation report in front of a panel of prominent professionals and received recognition for our outstanding performance. We won the award for the best report and second best presentation among all the students from all around the Czech Republic and Slovakia.

    The following year 2018-2019, I joined the CFA Challenge team of volunteers. As a volunteer, I have been one of the main points of contact for all the students from the Czech Republic and Slovakia.
