Institute of Industry-Based Economics and Management team reached the Northwestern Federal District final of the FinGames project

Students from the Institute of Industry-Based Economics and Management at KSTU entered the top ten teams in the Northwestern Federal District (NWFD) following the qualifying round of the FinGame (FinIgra) online game, organised by the Central Bank of the Russian Federation. This result secured their place in the regional final.

FinGame is an interactive educational project run by the Bank of Russia, aimed at developing financial literacy and practical financial management skills. Participants gain an understanding of macroeconomic processes, study investment instruments and learn to make financial decisions.

During the qualifying round, the teams had to solve economic case studies, build investment portfolios, assess risks in a changing market environment and respond swiftly to simulated financial crises.

The students from the Institute of Industry-Based Economics and Management successfully completed the tasks by working as a team, drawing on their theoretical knowledge and their ability to make well-considered decisions quickly. As a result of the competition, they ranked among the top ten teams in the district and earned the opportunity to represent the institute in the regional final.

“We are incredibly proud of our students! Reaching the final of such a major event as FinGame at the level of the entire NWFD is a testament to their personal talent, perseverance and the high standard of training at our institute. Now, the final lies ahead, and we are confident that the students will successfully cope with all the new challenges,” commented M.G. Pobegailo, Acting Director of the Institute of Industry-Based Economics and Management, on the team’s success.

We congratulate the team from the Institute of Industry-Based Economics and Management on their outstanding result and wish them victory in the upcoming NWFD final!
