Surakarta, 7 March 2024 – Thursday (7/3) a capital markets school event was held which was organized by the Capital Markets Study Group at Dharma University AUB Surakarta with the theme "Recognize the Initial Steps in Investing in the Capital Markets". This activity was held at the Garuda Graha Building, AUB Dharma University, Surakarta. This year's Capital Markets School (SPM) is quite different, whereas in previous years we only involved students from the Faculty of Economics and Business, but this year we have the opportunity to involve students from the Faculty of Computer Science, of course with the approval of the Dean of the Faculty of Computer Science and the Chancellor of Dharma University AUB Surakarta. The Capital Markets School (SPM) at Dharma University AUB Surakarta is a routine activity every semester which is held in collaboration with several parties, including the Investment Gallery, the Indonesian Stock Exchange, Central Java Representative Office 2 and a securities company (PT. Indopremier Sekuritas). It is hoped that this activity can be part of the steps to achieve the graduate profile of all study programs in the faculty of economics and business, especially in capital market material which is integrated in the faculty curriculum. And also for new knowledge about Investment, especially Capital Markets for Computer Science faculty students. This activity was held in the form of a seminar on the topic of investment literacy in the Indonesian capital market, especially for students who are taking capital market practicum courses. The aim of this activity is to provide literacy on investment instruments in the capital market to all students which is delivered directly by practitioners.
