Voya Investment Center
The Investment Center teaches employees how to invest in the stock market. Employees will advise JA BizTown citizens, through fun, interactive games with prizes, how to invest their money wisely. Students are encouraged to think about long-term retirement savings goals. (Citizens can purchase stock shares to play investment games by using their debit card.)
