52 students from different 香港六合彩中特网 programmes across 13 teams participated, out of which a panel from the Centre for Teaching and Learning Economics (CTaLE) selected the best submission and the Federal Reserve picked the top three to present their work live on 12 March.

CTaLE Director, Parama Chaudhary commented, 鈥淭he live final ceremony was a real highlight of my academic year - it was great to see our students presenting before an international audience and in front of senior economists from the Fed! They did a cracking job and I really hope that we get to participate again!
