The Journey of the National Finance Olympiad

Apr 8, 2023

The National Finance Olympiad (NFO) began with a sole aim: to improve financial literacy among school students in India. Today, it is recognized as one of the nation's premier Olympiads for developing the students into responsible, financially literate adults.


NFO was founded on the principle of providing teenagers with foundational financial education. Recognizing the lack of financial education in traditional curricula, NFO set out to provide practical insights into personal finance, investment, budgeting, and economic principles.


NFO received an overwhelming response from students for its first financial literacy test in schools across India. Students eagerly participated, demonstrating their curiosity and thirst for financial knowledge. This inspired us to push NFO to even greater heights.


NFO became an annual event as its reach kept on increasing. NFO created a comprehensive curriculum in collaboration with finance experts. The Olympiad serves as a test of knowledge and encourages active participation in the learning process.


NFO's rigorous evaluation process, backed by expert panels, ensured its credibility. The Olympiad has set a standard for financial education in India, gaining the trust of teachers, parents, and students.


NFO inspired schools to integrate financial education into their curricula. Students were able to gain practical skills and make financially responsible decisions. The impact of NFO extended beyond the olympiad, empowering young minds.


The National Finance Olympiad began with a vision of increasing financial literacy among school students. It successfully conducted NFO in over 100 schools across India in just the first two editions. NFO's journey indicates the power of education in shaping financially informed adults. NFO is changing the future by preparing people to make sound financial choices through the cultivation of financial literacy.
