Baltimore Business Review

The Baltimore Business Review (BBR) is a joint publication of Towson University's College of Business and Economics and the Baltimore CFA Society. The BBR leverages the relative strengths of both organizations to create an outstanding resource which showcases Maryland’s business opportunities.

The BBR was recently recognized for its achievements by the CFA Institute in Connexions, which distributed to the organization's leaders throughout the Middle East, Europe and Africa. With more than 100,000 members from across the globe, the CFA Institute is the world's largest association of investment professionals.
