Keynote Speaker – Martin D. Sass
Marty Sass, graduate of Brooklyn College, is Founder, Chairman and CEO of M.D. Sass, a leading independent investment management firm. He will candidly present his views on the risks of a significant global economic recession, why this bear market will offer great investment opportunities, how the MDSII can help KSB students distinguish themselves in pursuing careers in finance and investments, and more.
Welcome to the Martin D. Sass Investment Institute (MDSII). This student-involved hedge fund was established in 2015 as a new experiential learning initiative in the Koppelman School of Business at Brooklyn College. Under the supervision of seasoned and successful professional investment managers, the MDSII provides students the opportunity to learn value investing strategies while receiving real-world training by helping to manage the MDSII long/short equity hedge fund. The MDSII focuses on analyzing publicly traded stocks as well as macroeconomic variables that affect valuations in the stock market. Consistent with the Koppelman mission of transforming our students into highly desirable employees, their participation in the MDSII provides them with real-world experience and expands their career-building opportunities.
I invite you to explore our website to learn more about the MDSII, as well as read the stories of previous students.
