01Caribbean Securities Trading
The Caribbean Securities Trading domain tests the machinery of a regional trade: how orders enter a book and are sequenced, how execution price is set, how trades clear and settle at the central securities depository, and what changes when buyer and seller sit in different CARICOM jurisdictions or currencies. Expect scenario questions, so learn the sequence of events. The Jamaica Stock Exchange runs a Main Market, a Junior Market - qualifying listings receive 100% income-tax remission for their first five years and 50% for the next five - and a US-dollar market. Trinidad and Tobago, Barbados and the Eastern Caribbean each operate their own exchange; the Eastern Caribbean Securities Exchange serves several territories and is regulated regionally by the ECSRC.
