Britain's Princess Beatrice took part in the annual BGC Global Charity Day in London yesterday.

Princess Beatrice became a city trader yesterday as part of the BGC Global Charity Day, which marks the memory of the 9/11 attacks 13 years ago.

The 26-year-old royal - the granddaughter of Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip - became a city trader for the day to raise money for the Elephant Family trust.

Taking to her Twitter account beforehand, she wrote: "Trading currency and electricty @BGCCharityDay for @elephantfamily today we remember it's founder Mark Shand (sic)."

The event, held at BGC's Canary Wharf offices, is held in memory of the 658 employees of BGC Partners, who died in the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Centre in Manhattan, New York, 13 years ago.

Samuel L. Jackson, Damian Lewis, Stephen Fry, Jonathan Ross, Jennifer Saunders and Yasmin Le Bon were also among the celebrities taking part in the event in the hope of raising funds for their chosen charities.

Last year, Prince William, 32, and Prince Harry, 29, took part in the fundraising event and had people in hysterics as they sealed large money deals.

Harry surprised workers with his stock broker talent as he finalised a £21billion FOREX trade, before joking that his brother wasn't doing his job properly.

Meanwhile, this year, Harry and William were busy attending the Invictus Games, a sporting event for injured servicemen and women, which is currently taking place in London until Sunday (14.09.14).
