Diana Drake, Managing Editor of Knowledge@Wharton High School says, “KWHS Investment Competition provides a risk-free platform for young students to showcase their potential in investing by developing strategies to manage and grow their trading portfolio. Through this competition, they will learn skill sets outside of their classroom, such as teamwork, leadership, risk, communication and of course, making sound investments. In our first edition, we witnessed some brilliant presentations and I am confident that this year will be even better. I wish each participating team all the very best!”

Each competing team has to manage a portfolio of $100,000 in virtual cash usingOTIS, Wharton’s Online Trading and Investment Simulator.
