7th annual Investment Competition winners
Congratulations to our 2025 winners TR Capital: Ricky Wong, Rachel Win, Ryan Huynh and Tiana Ding.
Their sharp analysis of the TDM case study on Life360 wowed the judges at the finals event, and they now get to choose a paid internship to fast-track their investing career. Check out their winning case study here.
Future IM/Pact Investment Competition
The Future IM/Pact annual investment competition is a platform for gender-based teams of 2-4 university students to get hands-on experience solving and presenting investment challenges to leading investors and advisers. Not only do students get practical exposure to the types of complex problems analysts and portfolio managers solve daily, they also have the opportunity to win a paid internship with one of our incredible partner organisations.
Proudly supported by UNIT, this is your opportunity to gain invaluable exposure to the investment management and advice industry and its leaders who are actively looking for bright university students to join their teams.
Message of support from the Governor-General
At the 2024 competition finals event, we were honoured to receive a supportive recorded message from Her Excellency the Governor-General, Sam Mostyn, who wished the finalists luck and recognised the important role Future IM/Pact plays in fostering diversity and inclusion in the industry.

Meet the judges
Although studying a degree in finance, I did not have much clue to what a career in investment management looked like until I participated in the Future IM/Pact investment competition.
