High schools and first-year college students from across the Eastern Caribbean Currency Union (ECCU) are currently participating in the 3rd Annual Regional Schools Investment Competition. This innovative event, running from October 14 to November 7, 2025, offers students a unique opportunity to engage with the Eastern Caribbean Securities Exchange (ECSE) and gain hands-on experience in securities market activities. The competition aims to foster financial literacy and investment skills among young people, preparing them for future roles in the region’s financial markets. The initiative is a collaborative effort between the ECSE, the Eastern Caribbean Securities Regulatory Commission (ECSRC), and licensed broker-dealers. Participants will compete for the prestigious title of Regional Schools Investment Champion, with the competition kicking off with an Education Webinar on October 2 and a detailed briefing on October 8. Now in its third year, the event aligns with the ECSE and ECSRC’s 24th anniversary, celebrated on October 19, 2025. Updates on the competition can be found on the ECSE’s official website and social media platforms.
