Alumni Testimonial
I found my first position at Edmond de Rothschild through an ESSCA alumni. The day-to-day job of a portfolio manager requires more than academic knowledge, but also the ability to adapt to a constantly changing environment, to design innovative investment strategies and to maintain a high level of professional ethics. All these elements are rooted in ESSCA's core values and I had the opportunity to develop them through practical learning, associative activities and international experiences.
