The Temple Finance Association (TFA) is the Fox School of Business’s sole finance organization. TFA allows students to form meaningful connections with current members, professors, and the Fox School’s robust alumni network and prepares them for internships and employment opportunities following graduation. The organization focuses on exposing members to industry professionals through guest speakers across asset management, corporate finance, equity research, investment banking, private equity, wealth management, and more. In addition, the organization provides a strong foundation in professional development, financial concepts, and modeling skills through the Wall Street Boot Camp (WSBC). The organization often holds social and community service events, as a way for members to meet one another and continue building their network.

Falling under TFA are three other organizations, including The William C. Dunkelberg Owl Fund, Temple University Fox Fund, and Temple Private Equity Association (TPEA). The Owl Fund is a ~$2,400,000 student-managed equity investment fund run by ~20 Temple University students. In order to join, students must go through the Fox Fund and participate in a three-round interview process. The Fox Fund is a virtual student fund in which students learn basic accounting and finance principles, the concept of value investing, and prepare to join the Owl Fund. Last, TPEA is a brand new organization (founded in Fall 2023) in which members are taught private equity-related financial concepts and exposed to professionals within the industry, with the goal of helping students land internships and full-time jobs.
