A student-led nonprofit helping motivated students build finance skills, find credible opportunities, compete, publish research, and lead local chapters.

Built locally.
Connected
nationally.

BFN is a student-led nonprofit expanding access to finance education, curated opportunities, competitions, and practical career preparation.

Students apply publicly, and approved members receive organized opportunities, templates, deadlines, chapter materials, and internal workflows after review.

/ Building real skills

We teach the
entrance for Finance.

BFN is a structured pathway into finance built for students with no prior experience. Members don't just read about markets, they research real companies, build investment theses, and present stock pitches to a live committee.

Every assignment is designed to develop the analytical habits that matter in finance: asking the right questions, backing your thesis with data, and communicating your ideas clearly.

01

Financial Research

Company deep dives, industry analysis, and investment theses.

02

Stock Pitching

Price targets, relative valuation, and live pitch presentations.

03

Financial Literacy

Markets, accounting fundamentals, and basics of financing.

04

Professional Development

Guest speakers, networking opportunities, and real-world exposure to the finance industry.
