Raiffeisen Landesbank Kärnten | Caroline KnauderIn the summer term 2025 an investment game was initiated within the „Case Studies in Economics: Fundamentals of Asset Pricing, Finance and Investment“ course by Prof. Martin Wagner in cooperation with the Finance and Iventstment Club at the University of Klagenfurt statt. Using the Investopedia simulator and a virtual seed capital of 1 million USD, the students had to compile a portfolio and deal with securities over a period from mid-April to the beginning of September 2025. They were permitted to buy any SP500 and EuroStoxx50 shares and could also hold a certain amount in “money”. Short selling was not allowed.
Among the eleven participants, the three students with the highest wins were awarded a (very real) prize money sponsored by Raiffeisen Landesbank Kärnten.
Congratulations to Rubens Adrian Zambelli (1st place), Daniel Siebert (1st runner-up) and Bastian Metternich (2nd runner-up)!
