Tunisia's stock exchange, Bourse de Tunis, is set to launch its 14th virtual trading competition on October 1, 2026. The competition, previously known as "My Investia," has been rebranded to reflect a new phase in its development while maintaining its educational goals. The event aims to raise awareness about the importance of investing in the stock market and enhance understanding of financial market mechanisms.

The competition will provide participants with an opportunity to learn about investment techniques in securities portfolios and best practices in the field. It will also allow them to experience the rules and mechanisms of stock market operations through a simulated process. Interested participants can register through a dedicated website, where they can also find the registration form and internal regulations that outline participation rules and competition procedures.

Registration for the competition is individual and free, with a deadline of January 31, 2027. The competition will culminate on May 31, 2027, with prizes awarded to the top four investment portfolios that achieve the highest value. This initiative is part of the stock exchange's efforts to promote financial literacy and encourage investment in the Tunisian stock market.

The competition is open to all interested individuals, and participants can benefit from a simulated experience of stock market operations. By providing a platform for virtual trading, the stock exchange aims to equip participants with practical knowledge and skills in investment and portfolio management.

The rebranding of the competition reflects the stock exchange's commitment to innovation and its efforts to engage a wider audience in investment activities. The event has been running for 14 years, and its continued success demonstrates the growing interest in investment and financial markets in Tunisia.

The Tunisian stock exchange has reported an increase in various sectors, including a rise in date exports and a growth in pomegranate production. The country's economy has also seen positive developments, such as an agreement between China and the US to reduce tariffs by $30 billion.
