UNSW Capital Markets Association

Bringing together motivated students aspiring to build a career in capital markets.

What are Capital Markets?

Capital markets are financial markets where long-term capital is raised, invested, and traded between issuers and investors. They connect entities such as companies and governments that require funding with investors seeking returns.

By enabling the efficient allocation of capital toward productive uses, capital markets play a central role in economic growth, supporting business expansion, infrastructure development, and innovation.

What We’re About

We aim to support students interested in capital markets by fostering education, industry connection, and career development through meaningful, real-world experiences.

01

Education

We educate members on capital markets theory, the industry, and its practical applications through learning-focused initiatives, events, and real-world exposure beyond the classroom.

02

Industry Connection

We connect students with industry professionals, providing opportunities to network and engage with individuals working across capital markets and related fields.

03

Employability

We enhance employability by equipping members with relevant skills, exposure, and experiences that prepare them for careers in capital markets and the broader financial services industry.
