As an original brand activity of SZSE, the National Investor Education Animation & Comics Contest has been held for three sessions. Over the past three years, the Contest has seen an increase in both participants and excellent works. By combining animation & comics with investor education, the Contest has added a cultural core into investor education in flexible and diversified forms. And by transforming the cultural essences of the capital market such as the principles of justice, fairness and openness, risk awareness, honesty and spirit of contract into more popular cultural works, it has further strengthened the foundation for the deepening of the reform of the capital market.
