Full event details

Through guided discussion and practical activities, we will examine how different factors intertwine to influence market behaviour and investment strategies.

A key feature of the session is a live trading simulation, where you will step into the role of an investor and put theoretical knowledge into practice. This hands-on experience will challenge you to navigate the fast-paced environment of real-time trading, manage risk under pressure, and reflect on the ethical dilemmas that often accompany financial decision-making.

By the end of the session, you will have developed not only a stronger understanding of market dynamics but also practical insights into the realities of investment practice.
