UPP partners with Rotman Asset Management Association on student case competition

The UPP Private Equity Case Competition provided students with experiential learning opportunities and industry experience.

On February 10th, 2023, UPP partnered with the Rotman Asset Management Association (RAMA) to host the UPP Private Equity Case Competition. Participating student teams were tasked with preparing investment recommendations for a judging panel consisting of senior UPP investment professionals. Two teams were selected to represent Rotman at upcoming international case competitions. 

UPP is proud to support experiential learning and mentorship opportunities for students.

"Congratulations to all the teams that presented and the RAMA executive team for putting on a great event. The quality of work was exceptional and your presentations dynamic. I particularly enjoyed the added analysis on the risks and opportunities related to ESG factors. Meeting the students, staff and faculty after the event was energizing and a good reminder on why we do what we do at UPP: ensure the retirement of our members and serve this community so they can continue to do the amazing things they do."

Chief Investment Officer
