Polytechnic wins CFA challenge

Bahrain Polytechnic was announced the winner of the 2019 CFA Institute Research Challenge in Bahrain. In a close competition hosted by CFA Society Bahrain, the competing teams produced an equity research report on the financial performance of Bahrain Telecommunication Company (Batelco).

The report was then judged by CFA Society Bahrain and representatives from SICO and Bank of Bahrain & Kuwait (BBK) based on accuracy, insight and analysis. Bahrain Polytechnic team members from the Banking and Finance major (Sereen Abuodeh, Maryam Alkhenaizi, Maryam Aljawhara, Munya Sabkar and Bader Alameer) will compete in the EMEA Regional Final in Zurich, Switzerland between 10-11 April 2019, against other teams from universities around the world.
