Random Talk Mission Statement

This is probably something we should have done earlier, but here it is anyway.

Random Talk Mission Statement:

           

            Random Talk seeks to offer interesting content involving both the world of finance and the community.  As two college students seeking academic enrichment, we understand that posts may often be biased, however, it is in our best interest to irritate as few readers as possible while helping to enlighten as many as possible. 

            Most important to us are posts involving current issues in finance.  Topics, while unlimited, might most often include:

·         Corporate Finance

·         Valuation

·         Securities, Global Markets

·         Hedge Funds and other Alternatives

·         Risk Management

·         Qualitative Analysis

·         Analysis of Jobs within the field

            We would also like to offer information about issues at St. Bonaventure.  Random Talk understands that we are a representative of the University and seeks to improve the reputation of an already highly regarded School.  It is for that reason that our posts may also include topics such as:

·         St. Bonaventure Athletics

·         Stories about current students and their work

·         Interviews with faculty

·         Local community events

·         Regional and national events involving St. Bonaventure

            Our most valuable content will be concise and thorough and will offer multiple opinions.  We seek to do much more than just report the news.  Linking to stories and other social networking options is likely, but we hope to include our own useful analysis, whether it be factual or opinionated.
