What is Bursa Malaysia? Well, to put it simply, Bursa Malaysia is an exchange holding company which operates a fully integrated exchange service. Among the products offered include stocks, bonds, warrants, real estate investment trusts (REITs), derivatives and many others. By attending this event, you will be able to learn more about investments in a conducive and exciting environment while breakfast, lunch and transportation are all provided.
So what is WongaMania? Well, wonga is a British slang
for money and hence Wongamania could stand for “Excited Money”. Excited yet?
Well what is the objective of Wongamania then? Well, Wongamania is a fun to play, interactive table card game created as a
financial education game that helps adults to understand more about economics
and how various economics events will affect them and their investments. This programme is designed by Financial Youth Intelligence (Malaysia) and Capital Gains Group (Singapore).
This 30-60 min card game allows players to ride through the intricacies of an economic market cycle, trying to accumulate assets to retire and at the same time. You can choose to manipulate the economy and throw your enemies' plans into disarray, or work with other players to help each other achieve financial independence. Learn how economic scenarios such as property bubble, debt crisis or a stock market crash can affect your wealth and understand how to protect your wealth in the face of uncertainty. This fast paced game requires planning and strategy in order to outwit and outthink your friends, in order to survive the trials and tribulations that the financial markets will throw at you. The game is designed in such a way, that participants without any financial background can play and enjoy the game.
