The Jamaica Stock Exchange (JSE) has had some of the highest returns in the world, giving rise to a new generation of Jamaican investors who have cashed in on the JSE’s global phenomenon.

Over the last five years the JSE has cemented its place as the world’s top-performing market, with total gains of over 600 per cent.

As a result, the country is witnessing unprecedented stock trading from millennials whose use of online technology has given a greater understanding of investment, as well as the ability to trade stocks from the comfort of one’s home.

Nevertheless, there is still some hesitation from those who are unfamiliar with trading and whose incomes cannot support higher-risk trades.
