The Finance Association of Western Australia (FAWA) was founded in 2009 at UWA and quickly grew into one of the most established and recognised student run organizations in WA. Our mission is to cultivate a forum for interaction between students who share an interest in finance and the corporate sector, whilst actively supporting members in developing the professional skills and knowledge needed to succeed in the business arena. In 2010, FAWA was awarded the honour of ‘Best New Club’ and has since developed a strong membership base of 1,700+ students as well as an expansive number of alumni and a strong network. As an independent student body, FAWA aims to enable students from a multitude of disciplines to engage, develop and express their interest in finance and business outside the boundaries of the university curriculum. FAWA provides a conduit through which motivated students can further advance their passion for commerce, whilst developing the requisite core skills for their future careers as young professionals in the corporate sector.

A successful career in finance is built on more than technical expertise alone.

Your knowledge may open doors, but your network, reputation and commitment to continuous growth can be just as important in shaping long-term career opportunities.

CFA Institute explores the three types of capital that contribute to career success: human capital (skills and knowledge), social capital (relationships and professional networks), and financial capital (investing in your own development).

Whether you’re starting your career or planning your next move, this article offers valuable insights into building a stronger foundation for long-term success.
