CREDIT RESEARCH
CHALLENGE 2018-19
A National Capacity-Building
Initiative for Credit Markets

The Credit Research Challenge (CRC) is an annual competition that provides

post-graduate students with hands-on training and intensive learning in credit
research and analysis. We encourage students from across disciplines to use
their analytical and creative thinking skills to analyze companies from a credit
portfolio management focus. The CRC develops and strengthens professional and
social relationships across students, faculty, employers and credit professionals.
The competition is open to Business School students and other Post-Graduate
Program students from around the world.

This annual educational initiative intends to bridge the knowledge gap on Fixed
Income and Credit markets and promote the best practices in credit analysis and
appraisals through hands-on training and intensive learning in credit research
and financial analysis with presentation skills.
