Public.com offers a benefit for CTC members. Public allows your team to purchase fractions of stock for as little as $1 to get started, learn about investing and saving, and understand more about stock ownership and the market.

Why is financial literacy important?

As CTC Member Benefit Partner MorganStanley puts it, both saving and investing are important, but there’s a difference. “Most people benefit from both saving and investing. For instance, you might store money in a savings account for your end-of-year property tax payments or next summer’s vacation. At the same time, you might invest money you’ve earmarked for a future business opportunity and for retirement.”

The CTC Portfolio Tracking Project invests a small amount - for demonstration purposes only - in a range of ETFs in industries where CTC membership is concentrated, to create a long-range economic view of our critical industry sectors. These do not represent investment recommendations and are for demonstration purposes only.
