This is our eighth annual Ring the Bell for Financial Literacy event which promotes awareness of the role and importance of investor education and protection.
The WFE’s annual campaign supports International Organization of Securities Commissions’ (“IOSCO”) World Investor Week (WIW) which seeks to raise awareness about the importance of investor education and protection. This year the WIW programme, running from 5th - 11th October, is focused on three main themes: Investor Resilience, Digital Deception and Scam Alert.
A global network of exchanges around the world are coming together to demonstrate their support for this cause. Many exchanges are holding virtual bell ringing ceremonies, workshops and events this week to drive awareness of the importance of financial literacy in enabling the development of an inclusive market infrastructure and the opportunities that brings.
Take a look at the WFE’s monthly Focus Magazine. October’s Magazine will be a Special Edition which will shine a light on financial literacy initiatives around the world.
