Nordic Growth Market (NGM) is once again hosting Investerar-SM, a unique opportunity for stock market enthusiasts to compete for a prize pool of SEK 150,000. Investerar-SM runs from November 4 to 15 and offers participants a fictitious portfolio of SEK 1 million to invest in financial instruments listed on NGM.
Investerar-SM has been held for over ten years, attracting more than one hundred thousand participants, and is an important part of NGM’s long-term educational initiatives. The competition gives participants a fantastic chance to learn more about exchange-traded products and test investment strategies without risking their own money. With a wide range of instruments linked to underlying assets such as indices, commodities, currencies, and individual stocks, participants can try different strategies and develop their skills in a realistic but risk-free way. The best portfolio wins the title of Sweden’s Top Investor, with total prizes valued at SEK 150,000.
- “We see continued strong interest among Nordic investors in exchange-traded products, as they provide exposure to major international indices, American stocks, and commodities like oil and gold. This year, the U.S. election is also ongoing, which makes the competition even more exciting,” says Magdalena Hartman, CEO of Nordic Growth Market.
This year, a sub-competition has also been introduced to determine Sweden's top university within the Investerar-SM framework. The battle is between the trading rooms and finance societies at Stockholm university, Chalmers university of Technology, Linköping university, and Umeå university. This aims to increase economic engagement at the university level and inspire the next generation of investors.
This year's main sponsors of Investerar-SM, BNP Paribas, Société Générale, and Vontobel, make up a significant part of the Nordic ETP (Exchange-Traded Products) market. Participants can invest in over 45,000 products, providing exposure to a range of different underlying assets. This year, participants also have exclusive access to expert insights from our partner NeuroQuant, which helps them optimize investment decisions through its analytics platform.
- “Investerar-SM attracts thousands of participants every year and is Sweden's largest investment competition. We see the competition as an excellent way to increase knowledge about the capital market, which is essential for successful long-term savings,” continues Magdalena Hartman, CEO of Nordic Growth Market.
