Canadian University Dubai Trading Floor to educate students on smart investment

Dubai, UAE: The Canadian University Dubai (CUD) Faculty of Management has introduced a new program of extra-curricular activities to educate young people on the fundamentals of trading and investment, to help promote financial literacy and support smart spending decisions. The CUD Trading Floor initiative will provide participants with expert insights on investment strategies from working professionals in the sector, as well as opportunities to test tactics first-hand through demos and trading competitions.

The initiative was launched with the first in a series of educational sessions conducted by guest speakers and industry experts in the field. At the inaugural event, a team of representatives from the investment company, Freedom Finance (DIFC) Limited Company, delivered an interactive workshop on global market trends and the principles of trading, attended by students and faculty from a cross-section of academic disciplines.

Intended to bridge the gap between the theory and practice of investment, the CUD Trading Floor initiative will help students develop their quantitative analysis and critical thinking skills, as well as connect them with professionals operating in the industry. The program is open to students and faculty from any subject area, intending to build knowledge and understanding of trading across the university community.
