Personal Statement

My name is Oliver Stewart. I am a graduate of the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, where I concentrated in Finance and Business Analytics. I am from Cape Town, South Africa. Last year, I interned at a distressed investing company (a company that specializes in buying the debt of companies in financial trouble at a discount) in Cape Town. Wharton is one of the top business schools globally, and I have been fortunate enough to benefit greatly from outstanding professors and students. I’ve listed some of my favorite courses below: - Advanced Corporate Finance - Capital Markets - Investment Management - Valuation - Financial Derivatives - Advanced Topics in Private Equity - Fixed Income Securities - Distressed Investing and Value Creation - International Banking As you can see, I’ve had broad exposure to various areas in finance. I’ve learned a ton at Wharton and am very grateful for the opportunity to have completed a business degree at this world-class institution.
