The Faculty of Business and Management team had the great pleasure to participate in the CFA Institute Research Challenge kickoff meeting along with our faculty advisor and team leader Mr. Elie Bechara. We are looking forward to taking this challenge and we wish the best of luck to our master’s dynamic and motivated students Charbel Abou Jaoude, Hassan Kaaki, Ghina Kanawati, Assil Oueidat, and Ezzat Salam. We continuously encourage all our students to be part of such esteemed local, regional, and international experiences and fully support them on their journey toward excellence and success. Many thanks to the CFA Society – Lebanon and especially to the President, Mrs. Alia Kheir, and the Vice-President, Mrs. Joelle Chukri for this great opportunity and for Dr. Layal Bou Antoun FGM master’s 1st-year coordinator.
