[Asia Economy Reporter Changhwan Lee] DB Insurance announced on the 11th that the award ceremony for the '12th DB Financial Economics Contest' was held on the 6th at the DB Financial Center in Gangnam-gu, Seoul.


Now in its 12th year, the 'DB Financial Economics Contest' is an academic research support program that offers scholarships and overseas study opportunities by receiving creative and practical proposals related to finance from university and graduate students nationwide. It is hosted by the DB Kim Joon-ki Cultural Foundation and sponsored by DB Insurance and DB Financial Network.


Nine teams that passed the final preliminary round gave presentations, and one team was selected for the Grand Prize, two teams for Excellence Awards, and six teams for Encouragement Awards. A total of six teams, consisting of the Grand Prize and Excellence Award winners and three outstanding teams selected from the Encouragement Awardees, will have the opportunity for a global financial exploration tour to visit prestigious global financial institutions on Wall Street, the center of world finance in the United States.


The remaining three Encouragement Award teams and six additional selected Honorable Mention teams will also have the opportunity for an Asian financial exploration tour.



Although the 10th and 11th tours were canceled due to the spread of COVID-19 and alternative benefits were provided, the company emphasized that the financial exploration tour is planned to proceed this year as the situation is improving.
