The Bahamas International Securities Exchange (BISX) spent the afternoon of Monday 30 January 2023 with the 12th Grade Personal Finance class of the International School of Business Entrepreneurship and Technology (“ISBET”). Speaking to the students was BISX Chief Operating Officer, Mr. Holland Grant. Mr. Grant spoke about BISX and gave insight into the operations of the Exchange. He also elaborated on items from the student’s Personal Finance curriculum, and tied in stock exchange principles to their curriculum.

During the speaking session, Mr. Grant spoke about stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and capital market principles. He went on to talk about how stock exchanges work and how they benefit an economy. He noted: “Firstly I’d like to thank Miss Rolle their teacher at ISBET who reached out to me about speaking to her class. Teachers play such a crucial role in our society and don’t get enough recognition for their commitment to students. I’d also like to commend the students of Miss Rolle’s class, interacting with them was enjoyable, I was especially impressed with the quality of the questions that they asked as it showed the depth of their knowledge.”

In speaking about the visit, ISBET Grade 12 Personal Finance Students noted: “The presentation was very informative and gave us more insight about what persons can invest in locally.”

Miss Rolle, the ISBET Personal Finance Teacher noted: “Teaching our students about the local investment market is so important. Many of them aren't aware of local investment options, along with the fact that The Bahamas has its own Securities Exchange. It was a great session with the students as we continued our conversation about types of investments and securities exchanges, as a part of our school's curriculum at the International School of Business, Entrepreneurship and Technology.”

BISX COO Holland Grant concluded: “Investor Education and connecting with students is and must be an essential part of the BISX efforts to building the Bahamian capital markets. The students of today become the investors of tomorrow, and so BISX always accepts every opportunity to speak to a school as this is a critical way of us supporting the invaluable contributions of Bahamian teachers. We are also proud of our social media outreach and the work that we do with our Brokers to foster an investor culture in The Bahamas. We encourage readers to connect with us on Instagram @bisxbahamas to see more of our investor education output.”
