The Global Investment Society at USC

The purpose of GIS is to teach and practice investing with an emphasis on

global markets and varied investment classes, such as bonds, stocks, commodities,

currencies, derivatives, and alternative investments. The club’s goal is to foster an

environment of global knowledge and expertise in the investing sector, and to

build an investment skillset that isn't limited to a single market or investment

class.

GIS will emphasize international and buy-side investing, rather than simply focusing on

understanding the finance industry through the lens of the US stock markets. GIS

will provide a foundational understanding of the field of finance as an industry

which is affected by the entire world. Members of GIS should feel confident

pursuing a career in finance in any country in the world with the foundation

provided from this club.

Finally, the club aims to build a strong community of

passionate investors.

How are we different?

At USC, the finance & investment clubs do a great job of focusing on domestic (US) markets and explaining investing ideology. However, as we are living in an increasingly international environment, with more and more firms conducting business internationally. We noticed a true lack of international-market finance clubs here at USC, which is why we started GIS.
