Tunis Stock Exchange (TSE) held from the 22 to 24 May 2014 the 2
nd edition of INVESTIA, the Tunisian show of stock market and financial services (the 1
st edition was organized in November 2012) in Tunis. This event focused on investor and businessmen education and stock market awareness. It was an invaluable opportunity to signal to national decision makers the irreplaceable role the Tunis Stock Market can play to help finance the economy and more particularly the small and medium enterprises. Indeed, an agreement was signed between Tunis Stock Exchange and the Tunisian Employers Union to promote market financing of SMEs.
The stakeholder’s show is co-funded by ICF as part of its common project with Tunis Stock Exchange aiming at building the capacity of the Tunisian marketplace to raise financial awareness and promote stock literacy among the public and local investors, so they can take advantage of the opportunities offered by the financial market.
This exhibition was marked par several important events:
- A conference on SME coaching to help them raise capital on the market,
- A signing ceremony of Agreements of cooperation between Tunis Stock Exchange and three African Stock Exchanges: Algiers Stock Exchange, Douala Stock Exchange, and the Bourse Régionale des Valeurs Mobilières acting for the UEMOA countries,
-The awards ceremony for the winners of the online stock trading game that was run for educative purposes by the Tunis Stock Exchange,
- Ten Workshops for the public to promote stock market literacy.
