The Financial Open is now the largest Canadian undergraduate academic competition in finance with over 300 students and coaches from over 10 universities participating each year.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Financial Open ("Omnium Financier" in French) was first launched in spring 2005, following a meeting where representatives from the finance or accounting specialization of each SAMFEC member university discussed the possibility of setting up a competition in their field. Guillaume Marion, at the time a Finance student at HEC Montréal and head of the HEC Student Investment Fund, decided to take on the challenge and see it through. Over the next several weeks he recruited a founding committee, whose members threw themselves into designing and creating the competition, which was held for the first time in February 2006.
The goal of the Financial Open Cup is to give more Finance and Accounting students a chance to improve their professional knowledge and skills, with a greater number of cases designed specifically for them, and to promote networking with other students in their field at the other participating universities.
