GRAND CAYMAN: Saxon Pension Services (Saxon) is proud to announce the launch of the Saxon Investment Club to students in Cayman Brac. This is the first outreach programme to our Sister Island of the successful Saxon Investment Club operating on Grand Cayman over the past three years.

The Saxon Investment Club is a unique opportunity for students to learn about investing, develop a better understanding of money, the stock market, the relationship between current events and stock trends, tracking investments and starting and running a business.  They gain exposure to stock markets, whereby it provides the opportunity for students to gain experience in the world of finance. The official launch of the programme was hosted on October 11th at the St. Ignatius Catholic School auditorium while registration remained open until October 31st.

CEO of Saxon Brian Williams took the lead to introduce the Saxon Investment Club to students at Layman E. Scott Sr. High School. Mr. Williams said, “The team at Saxon is excited to expand the programme to eager young students.” and continued, “This is the third year of the Saxon Investment Club and we wanted to extend the experience to students on Cayman Brac.”

“Saxon is committed to investing in our youth as we recognize that there is no better investment in Cayman’s future than instilling young minds with knowledge and wisdom.” said, Mr. Williams. “While this club certainly evokes a healthy level of competition, the most valuable reward is the insight gained from the hands-on experience.”

“Through the careful planning of each group’s portfolio, the students will gain knowledge about sound stock market investing and money management, invaluable to shaping their future.” said, Mr. Williams. “Saxon also hopes that introducing students to these disciplines at this age might spark an interest in a future career in the financial industry.”
