Investment Internship at Mackenzie Investments

The Resource Team at Mackenzie Investments manages five funds, including Mackenzie Global Resource Fund, Mackenzie Precious Metals Fund, and Mackenzie Inflation-focused Fund. The team invests in natural resource companies in the oil and gas, metals, mining, chemicals, and forestry sectors. The Portfolio Managers of the team have experience in these sectors and in investment management which allows them to understand the resource industry fully. Mackenzie Resource Team has a strong ESG investment process, considering sustainability issues and achieving global climate change goals in their decision-making.

During the summer internship, I was focused on the energy transition and decarbonization of the global power grid. I developed a detailed global and regional power model to estimate future electricity demand and associated emissions.

Mackenzie Investments is one of Canada's largest investment management firms, with around 185 billion dollars of assets under management.
