The admission is free of charge at these Investor Day Programmes and they provide the participants with an ideal opportunity to raise questions pertaining to the market and plan their investments with Broker Firms and Unit Trust companies who are present at the event.Moreover, the Investor Day Programme is a prime opportunity for the attendees to register for the Educational Workshops which will follow in the second phase of Insight into Investing.
H.M.S. Kumari, a Teacher from Badulla Vishaka Girls School pointed out that since she was an English Teacher she did not have a vast knowledge about investing and that through the programme she learnt a lot. She added that this programme is invaluable for teachers and students in the Commerce stream.
