“Much like preparing for a race, investing requires dedication, patience, and a long-term perspective. Just as consistent training leads to improved performance on the track, consistent investing can lead to financial growth and security over time.”
CMC Invest has announced its collaboration with Shanti Pereira, a distinguished Team Singapore track and field sprinter and recent double Gold medalist at the 2022 Asian Games.
The partnership is aimed at enhancing financial literacy and promote early investing among young Singaporean women, the subsidiary of CMC Markets stated.
Shanti Pereira is a renowned athlete, celebrated for her outstanding achievements in the 100m and 200m races, and can easily make the analogy between the discipline required for competitive sports and successful investing, emphasizing the importance of dedication, patience, and a long-term perspective in both arenas.
Serving as CMC Invest’s brand ambassador, Shanti Pereira will lead initiatives aimed at educating young women about the critical role of financial literacy and the benefits of early investment.
CMC Invest launched in APAC in 2023
