Student testimonials

Roberto Lato, KWPMP Class of 2024

"During my summer in Victoria at BCI, I was extremely fortunate to have been able to produce two investment recommendation reports with the help of Sanjeet Dhari and Shane Leech-Porter.

Presenting my findings and having my analysis challenged by the Global Thematic team and senior management allowed me to become a better research analyst and opened my mind to the efficiencies of thematic investing.” – Roberto Lato (Class of 2024)

Nicholas Cormier, KWPMP Class of 2024

“During my internship at Global Alpha Capital Management Ltd., I had the privilege of deepening my connections with an exceptional team while honing my technical and professional skills.

The independence and trust granted to interns created a highly rewarding environment where I could leverage my prior experiences to contribute meaningfully. Through activities such as office olympics and Cirque du Soleil outings, I strengthened relationships with colleagues, enriching both my personal and professional journey.

The mentorship of Mr. Sain Godil and the entire Global Alpha team were invaluable, providing insights that enhanced my confidence in navigating the complexities of portfolio management.

This transformative experience has prepared me to thrive in the dynamic world of finance and inspired me to approach future opportunities with responsibility, innovation and determination.”  –  Nicholas Cormier (Class of 2024)

Michael Kamel, KWPMP Class of 2024

"During my summer internship at CDPQ in the Global Equity Research team, I had the opportunity to pitch a small cap FinTech company to the portfolio managers of the Canadian Small Cap portfolio.

This experience was incredibly valuable as it pushed me to dive deep into my analysis of the company and enhancing my thought process related to approaching complicated business models." – Michael Kamel (Class of 2024)

Julian Diodati, KWPMP Class of 2024

“My internship at Global Alpha Capital Management Ltd. was a transformative experience that significantly enhanced my understanding of investment management.

Collaborating with Serge Depatie, Mr. Sain Godil and Mr. Robert Beauregard, who are seasoned professionals, provided me with invaluable insights into healthcare investment, strategic questioning and simplifying complex investment theses.

The hands-on exposure to ESG integration and direct involvement in pitching investment ideas, most of which were integrated into the firm’s portfolio, improved my analytical and professional skills. This opportunity allowed me to contribute meaningfully while developing a deeper appreciation for a research-driven approach to small-cap investing." – Julian Diodati (Class of 2024)

Eyal Zelinger, KWPMP Class of 2024

"I am deeply grateful for the enriching experience at Axium Infrastructure, where the blend of a challenging environment and supportive mentors like Yann Soucy, Zhen Zeng, and Jean-Christophe Azzopardi allowed me to thrive and gain invaluable insights into the world of infrastructure investments.

This internship was not only a learning journey but also an opportunity to develop my critical thinking skills and apply theory to practice.” – Eyal Zelinger (Class of 2024)
