Why Financial Literacy
Did you know a teenager can have their own trading account and trade in actual stocks ?
Most of us think Investing and Money is an adult’s game. Our children are not given the right tools to understand and deal with their finances.
This course will help teenagers in understanding the role money and investing in their lives.
​
Teenagers will understand the basics of the stock market and start their first trading account.
This is a live trading course through which children will get to explore the stock market in real time and understand the nuances of it.
