Sefa Investment Club

The Sefa Investment Club has evolved from the former Sefa Investment Day into a year-round initiative! The Sefa Investment Club addresses the growing interest in investing among students by offering continuous opportunities to learn and engage with the financial markets. Many students are eager to invest but may hesitate due to a lack of experience. Our club aims to bridge that gap by providing a supportive environment where students can gain practical knowledge and confidence.

Throughout the year, the Sefa Investment Club will host a variety of events, including workshops and lectures led by industry professionals and professors. These sessions will cover essential topics such as stock selection, trading strategies, and the daily life of financial professionals. Additionally, we’ll organize career events like in-house days with industry-leading companies, offering you a chance to explore career paths in finance and investment.
