For over thirty years, the SIFMA Foundation for Investor Education (SIFMA Foundation), an affiliate of the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association, has provided sound educational programming to schools across the country. The SIFMA Foundation for Investor Education was founded in 1977 with the mission of providing the public with a better understanding of the securities industry, the stock market, and their roles in the American economic system. The Stock Market Game (SMG), an online investment education simulation is SIFMA Foundation's primary tool towards its mission. SMG impacted over 740,000 participants in the 2008–2009 school year.
