The Vice President of the Republic, Raquel Pe\u00f1a, led the opening of the IV Securities Market Expo 2026 this Friday, an event organized by the Superintendency of the Securities Market (SIMV) that has positioned itself as the strategic meeting point for the national financial ecosystem. The gathering seeks to bring the various investment opportunities existing in the country closer to the public.<\/p>\n\n
During her speech, the Vice President highlighted the fundamental role that the stock market plays as a bridge between savings and productive investment. Pe\u00f1a emphasized that this sector is vital to achieving the economic transformation goals outlined in the Meta RD 2036 strategy.<\/p>\n\n
A country advances when it is able to turn trust into investment and investment into opportunities. That is why the stock market is a tool to mobilize capital, finance development, expand opportunities and, above all, to transform trust into the future.<\/p>Raquel Pe\u00f1a, Vice President of the Republic<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n
