Bayesian Case Competition
October 5, 2019 will mark the second annual Bayesian Case Competition. Bayesian is a risk management case competition open to University of Waterloo and Wilfrid Laurier University undergraduate students. Following the financial meltdown in 2008,
evaluating a company’s risk management practices has become more critical than
ever. The purpose of this competition is to give students the opportunity to further
understand the importance of financial risk management and to motivate them to
pursue internships and careers in risk. It is also an opportunity to connect students
with industry professionals from leading financial institutions.
