STRUCTURE

The Structure
Seidman IPO welcomes all members of the Grand Valley State University community regardless of major, experience, or knowledge about finance. We strive to educate members about investing, the markets, and the breadth of careers available in the financial services sector. Please see below for additional details on Seidman IPO's structure.
Picture
​

IPO follows a structured progression where leadership responsibility increases alongside technical expertise. General Members attend weekly meetings to build financial literacy, and learn from speakers and networking events, without being within a specific sector. To become an Analyst, you can simply fill out a sector preference form at any point in the semester to join a sector. Here, you receive direct training from a Portfolio Manager (PM) during dedicated sector meetings. Senior Analysts take on a leadership role by assisting PMs in managing these sectors, while the Executive Board provides high-level oversight for the entire organization​.

If there are any questions about joining a sector or general progression in IPO, please contact Christopher Sharrar at [email protected]
