About PCI

Founded in November of 2000 as the Student Endowment Investment Group, Pioneer Capital Investments (PCI) strives to educate students about financial markets. PCI was established through a $100,000 grant by the college’s endowment and has been student run since its inception. Continuously operating for almost two decades, the group has taught generations of Grinnell students investing skills.

PCI consists of a diverse collection of students. Members include students of all graduating classes and many majors, both domestic and international students, and students of varying levels of expertise in the financial markets. With this distinct blend of students, the group is able to analyze multiple viewpoints before making a decision regarding the portfolio.

The key purpose of PCI is to educate students. We also bring in guest speakers such as professors, alumni, and other people from around the community who have experience in finance, accounting, investment management and mathematics.
