Finance Club

The finance club is both an introduction to the personal and career applications of finance. In order to understand applications of finance as a career in preparation for future studies in college, this club cultivates knowledge regarding types of investments, sectors, investment and portfolio building strategies, and means of evaluating a company, which are then practiced by developing a portfolio using investment simulator in group activities. In order to prepare members for their own adult lives, it also takes an early dive into types of savings accounts, taxes, and banking.
