CFA Research Challenge

The CFA Research Challenge is an international competition where student teams analyze a real company's financial health. Participants research the company's business model, financial statements, and industry environment to produce an investment report and present their findings to a panel of expert judges. The goal is to develop practical skills in financial analysis, valuation, and communication. Organized by the CFA Institute, the challenge fosters learning, teamwork, and connections with industry professionals, helping students gain experience and credibility in finance and investment analysis.
