BME Sponsors Bankinter’s “III Game Of Traders” Awards Through Its Training Courses

Bankinter’s “III Game of Traders” kicks off on 15th February.

BME will participate by sponsoring the prizes for the winners with courses from Instituto BME’s training offering. It is a gaming initiative aimed at young people aged between 18 and 30, in which participants gain an insight into investing in the stock market in an environment that simulates market operations as if they were real. During four weeks, participants will be able to carry out unlimited virtual trading operations in the domestic market on the trading platform provided by Bankinter. To this end, they will have 100,000 virtual euros (with no real market value) to trade. They will have to base their decisions on real-time price information and factor in all circumstances associated with the transaction, including trading fees. The aim is to maximise the value of the portfolio by the end of the game, on 12 March.
