CSE signs MoU with the University of Ruhuna

“When looking at the university community, I think everyone needs education on the stock market and should have financial literacy; not just the Faculty of Management, academic staff but also the non-academic staff to manage finances in daily life.”– Vice Chancellor, University of Ruhuna, Sri Lanka.

“Promoting financial literacy among Sri Lankans, especially among undergraduates is important as they are a key segment of the population who will contribute towards building a stable economy in the future.” – CEO, CSE

The Colombo Stock Exchange (CSE) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) recently (19.07.2023), with the University of Ruhuna, Sri Lanka, to formalize collaborative efforts to improve financial literacy among undergraduates in Sri Lanka.

The collaboration proposes to promote capital market education among undergraduates, by working together on a number of mutually beneficial strategic initiatives. Accordingly, the initiative would offer practical educational training and internship opportunities for students of the University of Ruhuna, who are engaged in accountancy and finance, business management, and economics-related degree programmes with the CSE.
