B&R Academy
The B&R Academy is the best method to learn many things about investing. Experienced members of B&R Beurs and guest speakers from different companies will be holding several lectures. The first lectures are used for learning the basics of investing, which is needed to participate in an active way within the several investment groups. This is the reason that the first two lectures will be held before the two Group Formation drinks and the start of the investment competition.
After the basic courses, there will be more in-depth courses on different derivates which can be used for investments. Furthermore, the process of creating a successful investment proposal with the help of fundamental analysis and technical analysis will be explained. After we have provided the basic information for the upcoming year we will continue with company in-house days, visit shareholders’ meetings, and lectures given by guest speakers.
If there are any subjects you want us to speak about or you just have questions, please use the forum, or contact us at academy@bnrbeurs.nl.
