Each participating school is comprised of two students who will trade and compete against each other and students from other schools over a seven months period. Each student is given a portfolio with JA$100,000.00 to invest and the students with the highest portfolio value at the end of the period are declared the winners. The school with the highest aggregate portfolio value will be crowned the JSE School Champion.
