平特五不中 inaugurates new Desautels trading room
On March 1, 平特五不中 held the inauguration ceremony for the Alphonse-Desjardins trading room on the second floor of the Bronfman Building. The event drew 平特五不中 students, 平特五不中 alumni who work for Desjardins, senior 平特五不中 administrators, and Desjardins employees who were either directly involved with the project or attending in support of the longstanding relationship between the Desautels faculty of management and the association of credit unions.
