PSFIA serves in an educational capacity to students interested in Wall Street careers and/or personal investing. In addition to weekly GBM's, members are encouraged to interact with LLC Portfolio Managers at bi-weekly breakout sessions. These sessions provide opportunities to network, ask questions, and take on more responsibilities.
