Students in the School of Management won the 2012 CFA Institute Research Challenge, hosted by CFA Jordan, an organization that promotes ethical and professional standards within the country’s investment industry. The competition challenged universities to produce the best comprehensive valuation report on Orange Jordan, a mobile telephone network operator.

The goal of the research challenge was to teach university best practices in equity research, valuation, and ethics. Organized under the patronage of the Amman Stock Exchange and in collaboration with the CFA Institute, the event also helps industry professionals train students in researching and reporting on public companies.

The winning team included NYIT-Amman M.B.A. students Ali-Al-Hilly, Mohammed Haj Khaili, Ibrahim Zananiri, and Hagop Gharnagharian, who were mentored by Aram Yousef Rabadi, CFA, senior analyst at Al-Arabi Investment Group.
