Ever wonder how an investment firm is structured? What is institutional management vs. private wealth management? Or perhaps, who does the research and picks the stocks and bonds for the portfolios?
Thinking about a career in investments? Have an interest in markets? Are you good with numbers? Are you good with people? Do you want to be a team leader?
The investment landscape is always changing. Now more than ever, much scrutiny is placed on a company's environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practices. Sustainable investing is a crucial lens when making investment decisions. Learn how JFL integrates ESG analysis.

Join Fridays For Future for the Global Climate Strike on Friday, March 25, 2022 as we demand policymakers and world leaders to prioritize #PeopleNotProfit!
The catastrophic climate scenario that we are living in is the result of centuries of exploitation and oppression through colonialism, extractivism, and capitalism. This is an essentially flawed socio-economic model which urgently needs to be replaced.
A system where rich nations are responsible for 92% of global emissions, and the richest 1% of the world population are responsible for double the pollution produced by the poorest 50%.
Guided by historical struggles and lived experiences, led by the most affected people and areas (MAPA), we are demanding climate reparations.
Join LUSU Sustainability, students, and the Office of Sustainability at 12:45 pm in the Agora as we walk together to the global climate strike organized by Friday's For Future Thunder Bay.
Join LUSU Sustainability on Friday at 11 am in the Agora to make a sign or button for the climate strike at 1:30 pm (Materials provided).
Jean E. Pendziwol is celebrating the release of her latest picture book When I Listen to Silence at two events in April. Pendziwol, who taught advanced Creative Writing in the Department of English at Lakehead University, uses a story-poem to explore the imagination when a young child is asked to sit, silent.
Through the window, the child can hear the trees breathe and watches them sway back and forth as they begin to dance. Her imagination takes her on a magical journey, past pirates and fire breathing dragons, to whales and mermaids before coming full circle to sit silent again. Carmen Mok's illustrations flow continuously from spread to spread like film in the same circular structure as the text. Lauded by Quill and Quire and featured by CBC Books as one of the top picture books to watch for this spring, When I Listen to Silence is published by Groundwood Books/House of Anansi Press.
Jean E. Pendziwol will be at Goods and Co. on Saturday, April 2 from 1 - 3 pm for readings, kids crafts and a book signing.
Entershine Bookshop will host Jean E. Pendziwol in conversation with Michael Sobota on Thursday, April 7 at 7 pm at the bookshop on Algoma. Admission is free, but pre-registration is required. Follow this link to register with Entershine.
