Grupo Argos and Mis Propias Finanzas award 20 scholarships to journalists in Colombia in commemoration of Journalist's Day

• The scholarships will give information professionals access to one of the programs built by Mis Propias Finanzas, focused on the functioning of the stock market.
• This effort by the Argos Business Group adds to the Economic Journalism Diploma developed with the University of Antioquia, which will have a new cohort during the second semester of 2024.

In commemoration of Journalist’s Day, Grupo Argos and Mis Propias Finanzas awarded 20 scholarships to communication professionals from various regions of the country to participate in their investment training program. This collaboration marks a milestone by integrating one of the main financial education programs in Colombia, the media sector, and the corporate sphere, establishing an educational platform dedicated to enriching the understanding of the stock market, as well as analyzing market dynamics and the investment alternatives available.

“At Grupo Argos, we firmly believe that rigorous and responsible journalism, which delves into the dynamics of the stock market, is fundamental for forging citizens capable of making informed decisions. For Grupo Argos, it is an honor to reaffirm this commitment to the construction of collective knowledge and to launch these new 20 scholarships for economic journalists, in partnership with Mis Propias Finanzas, commemorating Journalist’s Day in Colombia.”

Manuel Valencia, Communications Manager of Grupo Argos

This program adds to the efforts of the Argos Business Group over the last few years to provide specialized tools to journalists from national, regional, and community media through, among others, the Economic Journalism Diploma that it developed with the University of Antioquia and which will have a new cohort of 25 journalists in the second semester of 2024.
