    The JSE's Caribbean Business Exchange

    The Jamaica Stock Exchange and You is brought to you by CUMAX Wealth Management, "making more possible." Cable television is a system of delivering television programming to viewers via radio frequency signals transmitted through electrical cables; in more recent systems, light pulses through fibre-optic cables. You might be wondering why I am opening up with this information about cable TV on the JSE's podcast. I have a good cause. The JSE's mission is to contribute to the growth and development of the territories where they conduct business, by facilitating the mobilization, exchange, and expansion of capital while providing a return on equity acceptable to their shareholders. I know first-hand that the organization does nothing that is out of alignment with its vision and mission. Today, we will examine how the JSE's latest venture, the Caribbean Business Exchange, aligns with its mission and vision. To tell us all about that is Andre Gooden, Business Development Manager at the JSE. Some of what we looked at were: What is the CBX? How does the CBX align to the mission & vision of the JSE? How will the CBX benefit investors? What kind of content can we expect from the CBX? How will the CBX be different from what already exists? And lots more.
