Become a Fantasy Ä1,000,000 Portfolio Manager with the eFinancialCareersí Investment Challenge

Following the success of last yearís inaugural Investment Challenge, in which over 1000 students from across Europe battled to show they were the best investment trader, eFinancialCareers.com, the UK-based global financial careers website, is pleased to announce that registration is now open for its second Investment Challenge sponsored by leading investment management firm, Fidelity International.

Eligible to students from any university or business school across Europe, players will have up to three months starting 1 July 2008 to execute their winning investment strategy using a Ä1,000,000 fantasy investment fund.

Fantasy traders will be able to deal through all the main European equity exchanges including the London Stock Exchange, EURONEXT, Frankfurt Stock Exchange and Zurich Stock Exchange. However, participants will be restricted to maximum of 50 trades and a minimum of 10 trades in the period so as to mirror a typical mid- to long-term fund.

Additionally, there will be a 5% commission charge on each buy and 0% commission on each sell thereafter from 1 August 2008.

Alison Traboulsi, Graduate Marketing Manager at eFinancialCareers.com, commented:

ìWe are delighted that, once again, Fidelity International has chosen to sponsor this competition. We have worked closely with Fidelity International this year to design a challenge that specifically encourages players to employ strategies that are most effective over the course of the three months as opposed to simply day trading ñ which is not allowed in the competition. In these current testing market conditions, we look forward to finding out who can not only beat the markets but also their fellow players.î

The top trader will be rewarded with an Apple iPhone and the top ten competitors will be invited to a winnersí ceremony in October.

The registration period commences 16 June 2008 with the challenge formally starting 1 July 2008 and lasting to 26 September 2008.
