New York: Our student J. Riegler was in New York from September 3rd to 11th, 2024, to gain in-depth insights into international financial markets. As part of a trip with IG Börse Dresden, he visited several renowned institutions. One of the highlights was the visit to the FED Museum, where J. Riegler learned about the US financial system and saw the famous gold vault. At First Eagle (see picture), he gained valuable insights into direct lending as an asset class while enjoying a stunning view of Central Park.
“The trip combined knowledge, inspiration, and the unique charm of New York,” says J. Riegler The visit to DZ Bank was equally fascinating, where he explored the effects of US politics on financial markets and conducted real-time data analysis using Bloomberg Terminals.
