Our Purpose

VFG is the umbrella organization that oversees the main finance societies at the Villanova School of Business. It is a four-year club that is open to all students regardless of major and intends to promote collaboration amongst all of the finance sub-societies.

Freshman: Students attend trainings and workshops (VFG, SWIFT and FINS) introducing them to the financial services industry, financial markets, the news and other technical knowledge. 

Sophomore: Students start to specialize attending workshops/trainings by Villanova Wildcat Fund, SWIFT and M&A Society. In addition, VFG runs Villanova's Mock Super Day in the spring.

Junior and Senior: Students take up leadership roles, executive board roles and mentorship positions within the different finance societies
