"This internship made me feel optimistic about pursuing a career in the investment sector, particularly in areas where I can apply my passion for sustainability. I found the research project on natural capital to be a hugely rewarding experience. UCIM holds sustainability as one of its highest priorities, and this project empowered me to contribute evidence-based insights towards shaping the team’s sustainable investing ethos in relation to portfolio construction.“
“After this internship, I would definitely consider a career in investment. I enjoyed working at a smaller organisation like UCIM because it was interesting to learn about the range of different responsibilities of each team member. I liked learning about the different asset classes and analysing pitch decks. Through my project research, I learnt that there is much more that real estate managers need to know and do to reduce physical risk exacerbated by climate change.”
