Future Assets
Some girls in S4 , with Miss Campbell ( Business Education ), are taking part in a girl ’ s finance competition called “ Future Assets ” which is a Scottish competition where groups have to pick a company and present why it would be a good long-term investment . Click on the logo to learn more .
We have been allocated a mentor , Linsey from Dundas Global Investments , who will help and guide us through the process . My group , called “ All Star Investments ” includes myself , Grace , Eilidh and Ella and we chose NIBE as our company - they provide energy efficient heat comfort to properties . The other group , “ Team Marr Invests ” is made up of Julia , Amelie and Charley and they chose Amplifon as their chosen company which is an Italian brand - they ’ re the world ’ s largest hearing aid retailer .
Our aim is to persuade the judges why our companies are a good long-term investment and we ’ re hoping to win £ 800 for Marr and £ 150 each in vouchers of our choice of shop . Our presentations have to be finished by the end of December and winners will be chosen in January - wish us luck !
