Western Investment Club (WIC) is Western University’s largest club on campus, with membership currently over 1,000 students. WIC invests out of a $350,000 fund of diversified U.S. and Canadian equities with a long-only, value investing philosophy. The club was first established back in 1983 by a small group of young investors and has since grown to have an alumni presence all around the globe. The club’s primary mandate is to educate all students at Western about investing. WIC achieves this by providing weekly educational presentations, reports on industry news, and by managing the club’s equity portfolio. WICs equity portfolio is segmented into six different industry sectors led by a team of analysts. All buy and sell pitches for the fund are put forward at general meetings by the analyst team with the support of researchers and general members.
