Our Organization

Founded in 2012, Bruin Value Investing is the first and oldest undergraduate student-run investment fund at UCLA, operating a real-money equities fund driven by a commitment to value investing principles. Our members rotate across five main industry sectors, identifying and analyzing undervalued investment opportunities across Technology, Media & Telecom (TMT), Healthcare, Industrials, Consumer & Retail, and Financials.

We take pride in fostering a diverse community of driven investors who take pride in building lasting connections and friendships. Members benefit from an extensive on-campus and alumni network that actively provides invaluable support throughout the investment banking and buy-side recruiting processes, ensuring they are well-prepared for future career opportunities.

Our Approach

Bruin Value Investing conducts weekly meetings where members present investment theses for our real-money fund and analyze current events and market trends, facilitating intellectual curiosity and collaborative development.

New members undergo a rigorous training curriculum designed to impart the fundamental principles of value investing and core competencies in accounting, valuation, and financial modeling, preparing them not only to be active members of BVI but also to succeed in careers in finance.

Demonstrated Recruitment Success

By routinely practicing the fundamentals of investing and actively fostering a deep-rooted culture of mentorship, BVI members continuously attain outstanding careers across all major fields of finance.
