About us – MII

About us

We Are Michigan's
premier investing club.

Founded in 1998, Michigan Interactive Investments (MII) is a highly selective, leading undergraduate investment club at the Stephen M. Ross School of Business.

Each year, MII manages an investment portfolio with the goal of educating members about investing through interactive portfolio management. By maintaining a small, dedicated member base of approximately 60 undergraduate students, MII is able to effectively teach members about investing in a variety of equity, fixed income, and derivative securities. MII also provides many resources to help members secure internship and full-time job placements, and hosts the ENGAGE Undergraduate Investment Conference each Fall.

Our pillars

Education
An important goal of MII is to educate members about investing and strengthen their knowledge of financial markets. This goal is comprised of three parts: First, new members attend “Breakfast Club” sessions to learn the basics of investing, including how to source investments, value firms, and use financial data tools. Second, senior members lead presentations during club meetings on more advanced investing topics, such as distressed debt investing, options valuation, and monetary policy. Third, every meeting features a market update that provides members with a foundation and framework to understand current economic conditions and events.
Investing
MII builds a student-run portfolio through a process in which members evaluate market sectors and pitch their best investment ideas in small groups. After each pitch, members vote on whether the security should be added to MII’s portfolio. Profits are reinvested into the club, either through growing the size of the portfolio or funding special events throughout the year.
Professional Development
Our members are high performing. Graduating seniors have gone off into a variety of firms on both the sell side and buy side. Overall, MII members can expect an extensive network that can open many doors during recruiting season.
