The Colombo Stock Exchange (CSE) in association with the Securities and Exchange Commission of Sri Lanka (SEC) recently organized the 17th event as part of the Regional Investor Forum Series organized around the country. The forum drew an encouraging response and attracted over 180 participants, including a number of present and active investors in the market. The regional Forums are a joint initiative of the SEC and CSE with the aim of creating awareness on stock market investments. These Investor Days offer investors based in around the country perspective on investment opportunities across industries and create a platform for present and potential investors to engage with the CSE, SEC and stockbroker firms. This marks the second occasion the series makes a stop in Jaffna, with the previous forum conducted in 2017.
