Stock Market Learning

Stock Market Learning is an international competition run by the Savings Banks[1] in Europe with the support of the European Savings Banks Group (ESBG) based in Brussels.

The competition was held for the first time in Germany in 1983, while the Savings Banks in Europe became actively involved in 1999.

Each team is assigned an account with virtual capital that is to be used to buy and sell securities.

The purpose is to increase initial assets by conducting individual investing strategies.

In 2010, Stock Market Learning received the official UN Decade Project of Education for Sustainable Development award from the German Commission for UNESCO.
