Setting up the academy also required a modification of the BSE statutes.

Offering education in finance and capital market operation is an important element of the five-year strategy of the BSE, CEO of the exchange Richárd Végh underlined.

The BSE decided to launch an education centre for professionals that was based on international models. It will also be conducting financial awareness campaigns aimed at the broader public, Végh added.

The first BPA courses will start in the autumn.
