The Personal Finance Ambassador Programme was sponsored by HKEX Foundation and co-organized by Investor and Financial Education Council (IFEC) together with St. James’ Settlement. The programme aims to enhance groups of tertiary students’ financial planning and raise their awareness of good financial management. Five students from the Department of Economics and Finance were selected for Personal Finance Ambassador Programme. They formed a team called “Financial Trap Spotters” and received professional training to equip them as Personal Finance Ambassadors. Subsequently, they launched their financial education project on the theme of “Money Trap”. In November 2024, they organized a series of campus events, including Halloween Haunted House, Dodgeball game and DIY Bracelet Workshop, attracting over 550 students.

Due to their excellent performance, “Financial Trap Spotters” has been shortlisted as one of the final six teams to present their financial education project at the Presentation and Award Ceremony on 18 January 2025. The judges were impressed with the team’s ability to effectively convey the important message of personal finance literacy. Ultimately, the team received a Bronze Award. Congratulations!
