Karachi: The Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) is extending an invitation to securities brokers to enhance their market presence during the Investor Weekend 2024, a key event part of World Investor Week. Scheduled from October 11 to October 13, 2024, at Dolmen Mall, Clifton, this event promises brokers a pivotal platform for direct engagement with potential clients including the general public and corporate employees.
As part of the broader Capital Market Development Plan, the event organized by the Central Depository Company (CDC) in collaboration with PSX and the Securities & Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP), is set to be a significant opportunity for brokers to increase their number of account holders and boost their credibility. According to information available from the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX), the organizers are intent on surpassing last year's success with enhanced media engagement and more branding opportunities.
The event will take place in the mall's atrium with 12 available stalls, varying in size and cost. Stalls size range from 6x6 feet to 12x12 feet, with prices spanning from PKR 95.00 million to PKR 225.00 million for the three-day duration. This year’s arrangement also includes the involvement of digital and print media, social media influencers, and the Dolmen activation team to ensure a wider promotional reach.
Securities brokers who are keen on participating must select and reserve their preferred stalls by September 20, 2024, on a first-come, first-served basis. This initiative not only aims to facilitate the growth of securities brokers but also to promote stock market investing as a viable financial venture for the public.
