UCT Investment Management Industry (IMI) Short Course

The reimagined UCT Investment Management Industry (IMI) Short Course is aimed at new entrants into the financial services industry, or those servicing the industry such as software and legal firms. 

By collaborating with industry professionals, it aims to provide support for members of both Institutional and Retail Investment organisations working with investment administration as well as client servicing across various businesses within the industry. It will keep delegates informed about industry developments and processes.
