In October 2015, CIRANO took charge of the Bourstad’s stock market simulation initiated by Collège de Rosemont in 1987. Soon after, with the financial support of Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC), CIRANO gave its green light for the development of a new technology platform for Bourstad.
The new platform, which is now deployed on Bourstad’s Website (www.bourstad.ca), offers multiple innovations: real-time transactions, detailed information about traded securities, the possibility of using the platform for individual simulations all year around, tailored documentation according to the type of user, etc.
Mrs. Nathalie de Marcellis-Warin, President and CEO of CIRANO, officially presented the new Bourstad’s application during a launch party at CIRANO on Thursday, November 3, 2016, at 11 am.
