(VOV) – The CFA Institute of Singapore, an academic leader in financial and investment management, has cited Vietnam as one of the top four finalists in its Asia-Pacific Regional competition.


This is the third time the Vietnamese team has participated in the event, but only the first time the team has finished in the top four. The University of the Philippines at Diliman won first prize.


Rounding out the top four were the University of Foreign Trade (Vietnam), Auckland University of Technology (New Zealand), and Indian Institute of Foreign Trade.


Nguyen Ngoc Trang, a member of Vietnamese team was very pleased that the team clinched such a high finish at the contest thanks to tireless efforts.


The contest launched by the CFA Institute has provided students with factual knowledge on financial analysis and experiences from predecessors as well as improving their presentation skills, Trang said.


Ly Lam Duy, an expert from the University of Foreign Trade said that the event was a useful exercise for economic and financial students as it helps them learn more about CFA programmes and apply the knowledge in actual practice.


Duy expressed hope that a CFA Vietnam will be established in the future in order to support students nationwide with the opportunity to pursue post -graduate studies.


This year, 3,700 students from 825 universities around the world attended the regional competition which was ongoing from March 2013 to April 2014.
