Our History
Our History
FEP Finance Club was founded in March 2012 by Master in Finance students who sought to follow the tradition of major international business schools and bring students closer to the world of Finance and Consulting. In March 2015, the Club decided to open its membership to all FEP students, strengthening the commitment to its values.
The high commitment and motivation allowed the involvement in projects such as Business Trips and daily reporting, enabling our members to contact directly with companies like Morgan Stanley, Oliver Wyman and Bloomberg.
In 2018, the Club became an official organization with legal independence, underlining the strong development taking place within FEP Finance Club, driven by the growth of its professional environment, and the national recognition that follows.
