Watch Episode 7 of The MBA Show | Columbia Stinks



(1) Introduction

(2) Headlines: INSEAD CREATEs MBA BOND FOR STUDENT LOANS

kernal: Good branded schools get better

What's going on: Insead is working with prodigy finance to release a bond to investors that is collateralized by student loan payments. Listed on Irish Stock Exchange.

Good for international students and schools that can afford it (those with great brands, rich alumni, and high student earning potential on exit.)

* Easier to get loans, visas, and jobs.
* School gets dollars and engaged alumni.
* This is ONE more thing that makes is hard for second tier schools to compete.

(3) Jargon: tranche
-Used in structured finance to talk about slicing up something into different segments of risk.
e.g. The INSEAD Bond for 200 loans is sold in 100 tranches that are ordered by what order people get paid in
-You can use this colloquially to refer to anything that is divided up.
-This is a great word to use to sound if you know finance

(4) Rule of the week
Columbia Students Must be reminded to bathe
-HBS student John Kramer brough this Gawker article to our attention
-Memo went out to Columnbia Investment banking society in response to complaints
§ Brush your teeth regularly, or have a mint/mouth refreshers before going to recruiting events (avoid chewing gums)
§ Carry anti-perspirant with you if you are worried about sweating. Don't wear too much cologne/perfume
§ Professional haircuts
§ No backpacks with you
§ Men – no tacky cufflinks or watches (with no crazy patterns, silver is preferable to gold)

Tom: looks matter
Miro: what do I care what other people look like

Miro: does that mean I have to stop wearing t-shirts

Rule 2: “Looks Matter”
