What is FMA?
The Financial Management Association International was established in 1970 to develop a continuing relationship between finance practitioners and academicians to facilitate the transfer of ideas and techniques and advances in the field of finance between universities, businesses and other institutions.

Our Mission:
The Financial Management Association of the University of Missouri's mission is to assist finance students in making the transition from students to professionals. FMA acts as a direct liaison between students and business communities. Professional speaking events and company tours give our members the opportunities to make employee contacts and to develop leadership.

Objectives:
The objectives of the organization are to ensure that its members:
  • Obtain valuable career information;
  • Develop professional insights and attitudes;
  • Gain experience in problem solving and decision making;
  • Increase professional and faculty contacts;
  • Improve social and interpersonal skills;
  • Demonstrate competence in skill areas beyond those needed to obtain a college degree.
These objectives are met by encouraging social interaction between students, faculty, and businesses. Professional speakers, fundraising, and community service are just a few activities available to members of FMA.
What is FMA?
FMA is a nationally recognized organization with chapters all over the world. Our chapter here at Mizzou focuses to assist finance students in making the transition from students to professionals. FMA acts as a direct liaison between students and business communities. Professional speaking events and company tours give our members the opportunities to make employee contacts and to develop leadership.
 
What does the FMA do?
FMA has 6 required meetings per semester in which guest speakers are brought in to discuss their personal experiences and share insightful information about transitioning into the business community.
 
FMA has an investment competition every semester with a prize of $50 for the winner. There has been a recent effort to take this competition to another level and start competing with other schools in the Big 12 Conference.
 
FMA has one social event per semester, which gives new members a chance to meet upper classman and get advice about classes or career paths. It also provides a good way to get to know other members in the group and have a chance for leadership opportunities.
 
FMA has recently taken one trip per semester. Last year we made a trip to Kansas City to visit the Kansas City Board of Trade and Boulevard Brewing Co. And since the KCBOT wasn’t big enough for us, second semester we made a trip to the Chicago Board of Trade. While in Chicago, we also visited a global consulting firm - LECG, saw a Chicago Bulls game, and visited the Shedd Aquarium.
 
What are the benefits of membership?
Networking Opportunities
Networking opportunities exist with students, faculty, alumni, and business professionals.
