The award-winning student team in the Personal Finance Ambassador Programme, sponsored by the HKEX Foundation and co-organized by the Investor and Financial Education Council (IFEC) in collaboration with St. James’ Settlement, gained early access to a new game at IFEC’s FinEd Hub. (See: https://ef.hksyu.edu/news-and-events/news/detail/20260117-award)

Our E&F students from the team, Dr. Vivian Wang from the Department of Accounting, who served as the students’ mentor in the ambassador programme, and Dr. Philip Lee from the Department of Economics and Finance, were invited to try the game and share their experience with the IFEC system development team. The game aims to immerse players in various engaging scenarios and enhance their financial literacy to protect against different financial scams.

Our people were fully engaged with the new game, and we look forward to the official launch of game in March 2026.
