Michael Price Student Investment Fund (MPSIF) is a family of funds managed directly by NYU Stern MBA students. The fund, part of the overall NYU endowment, was established in 1999 through a generous gift from Michael Price, managing partner, MFP Investors, LLC and former chairman of Franklin Mutual Series funds.

With roughly $1.9 million currently under management, MPSIF provides Stern MBA students interested in pursuing a career in asset management with hands on experience managing a real fund with significant assets.
