"Just as trade and commerce rest on informed decision-making, careful planning, and trust between parties, successful investing calls for similar traits, including market awareness, continuous discipline, patience, and well-informed decision-making," NSE said in a statement.
"NSE aims to move beyond conventional awareness channels and connect with citizens in an environment that is engaging, accessible, and reaches a wide and diverse audience," it added.
The initiative focuses on several core areas, including investor rights and responsibilities, informed decision-making, safe participation, financial planning basics, awareness regarding SEBI-verified applications, grievance redressal mechanisms, and identifying and avoiding investment frauds.
Visitors at the pavilion receive simplified education material and take part in interactive learning activities such as quiz competitions, crossword puzzles, jigsaw puzzles, and the 'Scam No Game' module. The pavilion also convenes all Market Infrastructure Institutions and associations under one roof to handle investor queries and facilitate complaint redressal directly for traders, young adults, families, and first-time investors.
