Overview
HEConomie is delighted to announce that registration is now open for the Global Investment Banking Competition, powered by Scotiabank.
​
In collaboration with the Guelph Student Investment Council, the Dalhousie Investment Society, the HEC Trading Club, the HEC Finance Committee, and Femmes en Affaires HEC, we are proud to present the largest investment banking competition in Eastern Canada.
​
Participants will have the unique opportunity to assume the role of investment banking analysts, tackling a real-world corporate finance case. This prestigious event, sponsored by Scotiabank, provides direct recruitment opportunities for students with a strong passion for capital markets.
​
The competition will welcome over 300 participants from 25 universities, beginning with an online preliminary round from February 17th to February 21st, and culminating in a final round on March 15th at the Scotiabank Tower in Montreal. During the final round, competitors will present a real merger and acquisition case to a distinguished panel of investment banking professionals.
On February 17th, competitors will receive the competition case package, which includes a PowerPoint presentation, Excel templates, and complimentary five-day access to the Wall Street Prep Modeling Courses.
​
For competitors traveling from outside Quebec, we offer, for a fee, up to two nights’ accommodation at a beautiful hotel in the heart of downtown Montreal, along with complimentary shuttle service from the airport on March 14th.
​
This event is more than just a competition; it is an extraordinary opportunity for networking, career advancement through Scotiabank’s recruiting initiatives, and an experience in the vibrant city of Montreal.

With limited spots available, we encourage you to register before January 27th.
