Hello! We are Carl Sabbagh and Ghassan Alhalabi, Co-Head and Analyst at Queen’s Tower Capital respectively. We would be honoured to work with you as the Heads of Portfolio Management for the Investment Society.

About Us

The Action Plan

Real-World Experience

We will establish a real student-managed fund with actual capital, allowing members to gain invaluable, hands-on experience in portfolio and risk management.

Cater to All Experience Levels

  • Beginner-Friendly Structure: For newcomers, we’ll refine the current QT Capital framework and introduce a bespoke training programme exclusive to Imperial analysts. This will provide a strong foundation in accounting and investment analysis as a pathway to write high-quality equity research reports and stock pitches.
  • Advanced Members: Experienced analysts will manage real money through a dedicated fund, covering advanced sectors (FIG, P&U, etc.) and systematic funds.

Compete, Collaborate and Excel

Analysts will represent QT Capital in prestigious investment competitions such as:

  1. The UBS Stock Pitch Competition
  2. The Rotman International Trading Competition
  3. The UK Investment Challenge

These competitions will foster collaboration, challenge our members and showcase their skills.

Continuous Growth and Innovation

Our approach will remain dynamic and responsive to members' needs, ensuring everyone thrives. With our backgrounds in finance and entrepreneurship, we will lead QT Capital into a new era of growth and success.
