On November 5^th the IE Finance Club had the opportunity to organize a conference hosted by Cristina Garcia-Peri on “Equity Derivatives Strategies for Corporates”. Cristina is a former European Head of Corporate Derivatives at J.P. Morgan and Merrill Lynch and will be joining the IE faculty in 2010.

During the presentation Cristina explained to IE Students different derivatives structures and how Corporations take advantage of structured products to meet their financial goals. It was an incredible opportunity for IE students to learn how several concepts taught in class are applied in real life situations. Cristina’s experience was also enlightening in helping students understand some insights of the banking industry and get a sense of how their future career in finance might look like.

The IE Finance Club will be planning more events with the objective of bringing real life applications of concepts learned in class. If you are interested in helping in the organization of the events or just want to share ideas with the club, please contact José Alfredo González jagb.imba2010@alumno.ie.edu, Eduardo Garbayo egarbayo.imba2010@alumno.ie.edu and Francesco Cottini fcottini.imba2009@alumno.ie.edu .
