In order to provide practical understanding of the concepts of portfolio management, the Portfolio Management Program was begun in 2003 in Vienna, Austria. This is one of the unique programs in the entire European continent. Students can apply for admission from finance programs at the WU, or the Uni-Wien (BWZ) or students in financial mathematics or econometrics at the TU. The participants have the opportunity to manage real money in the form of a managed portfolio. In doing so, they can structure the portfolio in order to achieve an optimal risk-return objective. There are three managed funds, each having an initial amount greater than €1 million. One fund is managed in an entrepreneurial style as utilized by the professionals at ZZ Vermögensverwaltung, a second fund is managed in the style of the Harvard endowment fund, utilizing a passive approach and a third fund is managed in the style of Yale involving the concepts of manager selection. The members of the PMP proceed in two distinct phases. In the first year, students are "analysts"; their main responsibility is to work on research projects on behalf of their managers. Each analyst is expected to achieve expertise and specialize on either one or two asset classes. After the first year, successful students will become managers of their funds. They will then be responsible for the account management and strategic decisions. The goal of the program is to further the interaction between scientific theory and actual practices.

Applicants to the program must come from one of the following programs.
Further, students should be in the final phase of their bachelors studies with a concrete plan to enter a Masters program at one of these institutions in Vienna. Students will be selected after an application period and a group interview. They will be judged for their ability to work in teams and for their ability to engage in the practical aspects of asset management. Above all else the participants must want to achieve the greatest possible success for their portfolio performance. As this is a two year program and one that requires active engagement, applicants who have already begun a Masters program will not be accepted. Further full time employment is not possible for participants in the program. |
