Tunisia's Bourse, the country's stock exchange, is launching the fourth edition of its virtual trading competition, now called "Bourse de Tunis Competition", previously known as "My Investia". The competition, which aims to promote financial literacy, will start on October 1, 2026, and will run until May 31, 2027. The competition is part of Bourse de Tunis' program to support financial culture and promote understanding of financial market mechanisms.

The competition is open to individuals and is free to participate. Registration will be open until January 31, 2027. Participants will have the opportunity to practice best techniques in managing their financial portfolios and gain experience in dealing with various stock markets. The competition's internal regulations and participation rules are available on the competition's website.

The Bourse de Tunis has allocated four prizes for the winners who achieve the best returns on their financial portfolios at the end of the competition. The prizes are a significant incentive for participants to develop their skills and knowledge in financial management. The competition is expected to attract a large number of participants from across the country.

The virtual trading competition is part of Bourse de Tunis' efforts to promote financial inclusion and literacy in Tunisia. The competition provides a platform for participants to learn about financial markets and instruments, and to develop their skills in managing financial portfolios. This initiative is in line with the country's efforts to promote economic development and financial stability.

The competition's launch coincides with other economic developments in Tunisia. Recently, the country has seen significant progress in various sectors, including the financing of 1200 research projects in agriculture, environment, health, and energy since 2012. Additionally, the Tunisian stock market index, "Tunindex", has seen fluctuations in recent weeks, with a decline of 3.2% during the past week.

The Bourse de Tunis Competition is also taking place against the backdrop of efforts to boost economic growth and development in the country. The government has been working to promote investment and improve the business climate, with initiatives such as the development of the logistics and commercial zone in Ben Guerdan, in the governorate of Medenine.

The fourth edition of the Bourse de Tunis Competition is expected to build on the success of previous editions, which have contributed to promoting financial literacy and inclusion in Tunisia. The competition's organizers are confident that this edition will attract a large number of participants and provide them with valuable skills and knowledge in financial management.
