FIRM OVERVIEW
Founded in 1986, Farallon seeks investments across asset classes and around the world through a process of bottom-up fundamental research and analysis. Our investment strategies include Credit, Long/Short Equity, Merger Arbitrage, Healthcare, and Real Estate. The firm is headquartered in San Francisco and has offices in London, Singapore, Hong Kong, Tokyo, São Paulo, and New York.
CASE COMPETITION OVERVIEW
Please note: This year’s competition features a new format — rather than selecting their own target, teams will be assigned one of three pre-selected companies to research.
The goal of Farallon’s undergraduate case competition is to advance the understanding and practice of investing through real-world examples. Students will form teams of 3-4, and teams will be assigned one of three pre-selected companies to research and on which to present their investment thesis, either as a long or a short.
Farallon investment professionals will serve as judges and provide feedback on case submissions to all participating teams. The team with the top pitch for each stock will have the opportunity to present their cases in person in San Francisco, where the winning team will be selected and announced. The firm will cover travel and hotel expenses.
FINALIST PRIZES
Finalists will receive a sponsorship gift to the teams’ affiliated student investment club:
