A hoarding outside the Sri Lanka Exhibition and Convention Centre in Fort promotes the SEC’s Investment Day 2013 which it will host on 6 July from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. The event will serve as a good platform for investors to obtain knowledge on investing in the capital market. It will assist potential investors to open accounts to transact in shares and unit trusts and will feature prominent professionals from the securities industry, who will address the gathering on a wide spectrum of topics throughout the day, ranging from benefits of investing in the stock market, risks associated with investing in the market and how to mitigate them and investing in the debt market in all three languages.
One of the main attributes of the event would be that participants will be able to meet the entire capital market including the Colombo Stock Exchange, stock broking firms, investment managers, margin providers, listed companies and unit trust management companies under one roof. These institutions will exhibit more than 60 stalls at the investment day.
Investors will also be able to witness the launch of two books on investing in the capital market and obtain research reports and free brochures on investing in shares and unit trusts. Furthermore, they will get the opportunity to watch video documentaries in all three languages on investing in the capital market and win opportunities to invest in the stock market free of cost. Entrance to ‘Investment Day 2013’ will be free of charge.
