The voice of banking and payments in Ireland
National Winners compete for the European championship in a final competition between all participating countries in Brussels, on the 22nd – 23rd May 2025 organised by the European Banking Federation (EBF). Similar to the national finals the team who answers the most correct questions in the fastest time wins.
The winners of the Irish final of the European Money Quiz 2024 were Maria Miller & Lily O’Connor from Presentation College Carlow, who represented Ireland in the European finals which took place in Brussels on the 19th of April.
The BPFI Senior Economists Masterclass 2025 for 5th and 6th year business and economics students took place on Tuesday 11th March 2025.
The annual Masterclass is a fantastic opportunity for students in the Leaving Cert cycle to gain insights from Ireland’s top economists ahead of their exams. During the webinar economists from AIB and Bank of Ireland each gave a presentation on the top economics issues of the day which was followed by a panel discussion.
Moderator: Ali Ugur, Chief Economist, Banking & Payments Federation Ireland
Panellists: John Fahey, Senior Economist, AIB and Michael Crowley, Senior Economist, BOI
The quiz and masterclass take place as part of European Money Week, an annual initiative organised by the European Banking Federation, of which BPFI is a member, to promote financial education across Europe. In March each year, hundreds of activities are held in 30+ countries to promote financial literacy in Europe. This year’s European Money Week runs from 17th – 21st March 2025.
