The Qatar Stock Exchange (QSE) on Tuesday hosted a bell ringing ceremony as part of its participation in the World Investor Week, initiated by IOSCO (International Organisation of Securities Commissions) and the World Federation of Exchanges.
Rashid bin Ali al-Mansoori, chief executive of QSE, highlighted the bourse's ongoing efforts to enhance financial literacy among all society segments, a move that forms an important pillar of its strategy to contribute to the sustainability goals as well as the human and economic pillars of Qatar National Vision 2030 with an aim to build a vibrant knowledge based economy.
As a result, its strategic plan includes several financial literacy objectives focused on spreading awareness among researchers, issuers, brokers and investors of all age groups.
Since 2013, the QSE has provided financial educational training to more than 10,000 students belonging to various educational institutions, universities, schools and military colleges.
"The QSE's participation in this global initiative demonstrates our commitment towards enhancing financial literacy and investment awareness through various programmes and initiatives that have been expanded and developed over the years," said Hussain Mohamed al-Abdulla, QSE’s Director of Marketing and Communications.
In line with the social responsibility of QSE and the precautionary measures taken to combat the Covid-19, the QSE’s marketing and communications department launched a distance learning programme, which includes free online courses for the public.
The courses, which are given by a group of specialised university professors and the QSE experts, are aimed to promote securities investment and trading awareness among various segments of the local community.
The number of participants in this programme over the past four months reached about 2,700 participants, according to al-Abdulla.
