Bridging the Gap from Court St. to Wall St.
The Ohio University Student Equity Management Group (OUSEMG) stands as a testament to the transformative power of collaboration, innovation, and professional development. Founded in the heart of Athens, Ohio with $100,000, our journey began with a shared ambition: to empower students across Ohio University to thrive in the realm of finance and investments.
Our team brings together students from diverse backgrounds, academic disciplines, and experiences, creating an environment where rigorous debate and differentiated thinking thrive. Through long-only stock pitches and intensive professional development, OUSEMG manages a $12 million, student-run, equity-only investment portfolio. Our approach is focused on disciplined capital appreciation while integrating social responsibility and sustainability across both our traditional and sustainable portfolios.
