Congratulations to the BAFS team which won the Bronze Award of the Personal Finance Ambassador Programme 2019/20!

Five BEd(BAFS) students (Chu Hoi Ting; Chu Lai Hang; Ng Hok Yu; Ng Kei Ying; Yung Sing Yu) formed a team and were shortlisted and trained as Personal Finance Ambassadors on the Personal Finance Ambassador Programme 2019/20. Participants were required to develop their financial education projects under the theme “e-Payment” to strengthen students’ knowledge of electronic payment and personal finance. They were also required to deliver their team project and promote financial education messages to students at the University. Despite the disruptions since November 2019 and the many difficulties for the team to carry out programme activities on campus, our BAFS team managed to put their activities online through video and mini-games, providing useful hints and questionnaires on personal finance. The project was successfully implemented by inviting students to reflect on their spending habits and to practise balance between saving and E-payment spending. 

The Personal Finance Ambassador Programme 2019/20 was co-organised by HKEX Foundation Limited, Investor and Financial Education Council, and St. James’ Settlement. There were more than thirty participating teams from local tertiary institutions.
