Loyola Fixed Income Society

The Loyola Fixed Income Society was created in Spring 2015, and is a student-run organization. The Society focuses on enhancing the education of the students who completed FI380 (Fixed Income Securities). All those who are interested in the fixed income markets or completed FI380 will be encouraged to join. The society hopes to give both students an opportunity to gain experience with debt instruments.

The society takes advantage of the Bloomberg Terminals and promote members to attain Bloomberg certificates in fixed income securities. It is of the utmost importance that the members adhere to the Jesuit values of the university.
