A visit to Frankfurt Börse and Bundesbank
As a key European financial hub, Frankfurt is the perfect place for a real-world economics experience and fortunately, our year 9 and 10 LPs got this opportunity, as they visited two of the internationally renowned financial institutions: Frankfurt Börse and the Bundesbank.
After a guided tour of the Geld Museum at the Bundesbank, our LPs got the chance to explore the museum themselves and play with the interactive exhibitions, which covered a range of topics from the birth of banks in the 17th century to the present-day inflation.
On the second part of our trip, we visited the Frankfurt stock exchange where the enticing statues of the “Bull and Bear” rightly symbolize the fickle nature of the trading market.
It was an eye-opening and engaging learning experience for all.
