Traders Securities: Conducts Outreach Lessons on Financial and Economic Education for Junior High/High School Students and Parents in Adachi Ward

Our group company, Traders Securities Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, Representative Director: Tsuyoshi Suyama, hereinafter referred to as "Traders Securities"), which operates a foreign exchange margin trading business (FX trading), etc., conducted an outreach lesson on financial and economic education for junior high and high school students and their guardians residing or attending school in Adachi Ward at the Adachi Lifelong Learning Center on March 14, 2026. 【Event Overview】 This outreach lesson was held as part of the event 'Experiential Financial Course for Parents and Junior/Senior High School Students ~ Career Education x Financial Literacy,' organized by the Youth Division of the Adachi Ward School Administration Department and planned/operated by NPO JUKE. While our group has focused on outreach lessons at schools upon request, this initiative marks a new approach by participating in a municipal-sponsored event. Under the theme 'To the Era of 100-Year Lifespans: How to Deal with Money to Survive the New Era,' Mr. Uchida, a foreign exchange dealer who faces the market on the front lines daily, served as the lecturer for approximately 40 participants, explaining practical financial knowledge based on his operational experience and how to respond to changes in the economic environment. 【Lesson Content】 The lesson was structured in two parts: a lecture and group work. The lecture began with the importance of income and expenditure management in the 100-year lifespan era and a warning about investment scams. It then explained fundamental knowledge for understanding the economy, such as the mechanism of currency fluctuations, the impact of interest rates, and the role of central banks. It also touched upon the power of compound interest, the basic investment principles of 'long-term, systematic, diversified investment,' corporate financing mechanisms, and the NISA system, enabling participants to think in connection with their own life plans. In the group work, a simulated investment exercise was conducted, taking into account global political, economic, and social trends. Leveraging the event's characteristic of parent-child participation, junior/senior high school students and their guardians formed teams to consider investment targets, engaging in active discussions while bringing together perspectives from different generations. The instructor provided explanations incorporating the latest market data and industry trends, bridging theory and practice. 【Participant Feedback】 In the post-lesson survey, high ratings were received: 'Clarity' 100%, 'Comprehension' 97%, 'Satisfaction' 95%, and 'Recommendation' 89%. ＜Junior/Senior High School Students＞ 'I thought investing was difficult and timing was important, but I understood it as a means to improve the world and realize dreams.' 'The explanations were broken down so that junior/senior high school students could understand, and I comprehended it well. I learned how to think in the actual experience through the workshop.' 'I learned the importance of systematic investment. Since saving diligently is crucial, I want to start soon.' ＜Guardians＞ 'It was a valuable opportunity to learn while having conversations with my child. I realized that investing inherently has the purpose of supporting companies.' 'I learned the term 'real interest rate' for the first time. I was able to understand how to view the country's economy and financial situation.' 'I learned a lot by hearing various opinions from participants during the experiential workshop.' On the other hand, there were also requests such as 'I wanted to know more about the NISA system and specific ways to start investing,' indicating expectations for more practical content. 【Achievements and Significance of this Lesson】 Through this format of learning together as parents and children, we were able to convey financial literacy education concretely. The correct answer rate for true/false questions on basic investment principles exceeded 95%, which we consider a result of the participants' enthusiastic engagement. We especially received feedback from junior/senior high school students such as 'I understood that investing can improve the world and fulfill dreams,' and from parents, 'Investing has the inherent purpose of supporting companies,' leading us to believe that the essential significance of investment was understood. On the other hand, there were aspects of practical content that could not be fully conveyed due to time constraints. We will utilize these valuable opinions to improve future lessons. The ability to provide financial education to a wide range of people beyond school boundaries through a municipal-sponsored event was a significant learning experience for our company as well. We will continue to support the next generation in acquiring sound financial knowledge and building prosperous futures by collaborating with the local community. 【Future Initiatives】 Our group will continue to promote financial and economic education activities that contribute to improving financial literacy across a wide range of people through outreach lessons with dispatched instructors, workplace experience programs, and participation in various events, thereby contributing to the realization of a sustainable society.
