Mirae Asset Global Investments Hosts 'Woori Ai TDF' Happy Family Trip

Economic Classes Tailored to Elementary School Students' Level

Mirae Asset Global Investments announced on the 9th that it held the ‘Mirae Asset Woori Ai TDF Happy Family Trip’ over two days, on the 5th and 6th, in Hongcheon, Gangwon Province.

The ‘Mirae Asset Woori Ai TDF Happy Family Trip’ is an event newly launched this year by Mirae Asset Global Investments to provide financial education for parents and their young children. Among customers who subscribed to ‘Mirae Asset Woori Ai TDF2035’ and applied for the event, 20 families with elementary school children were selected through a lottery.

During the trip, an economics class tailored to the level of elementary school students was conducted. The students had the opportunity to understand the concept of financial investment through various programs such as the ‘Financial Level-Up Card Game,’ ‘Allowance Expedition,’ and ‘My Asset Management Board Game.’ Additionally, programs teaching and practicing the concept of digital finance, such as ‘Mobile Web-based Investment Experience,’ were also held.

One elementary school student who participated in the program said, “I learned how to decide how much allowance to spend in a day and that I should buy what I need first.” They added, “It was great to learn economics through fun games, and I came to understand what investment is.”

Parents raising young children participated in financial and health-related programs that could help in daily life, such as ‘Asset Management Seminar’ and ‘Child Health Care.’

In addition to the ‘Mirae Asset Woori Ai TDF Happy Family Trip,’ Mirae Asset Global Investments operates various experiential programs including financial education for teenage and child fund investors. In particular, the ‘Woori Ai Global Leader Expedition’ is an economic education program that has been steadily conducted for over 20 years, allowing participants to learn foundational qualities as global leaders through visits to global companies.

So Sujin, Executive Director and Head of WM Pension Marketing Division at Mirae Asset Global Investments, said, “It is important to develop economic awareness from a young age, and through Woori Ai TDF, we hope to help children prepare their independent funds while cultivating good investment habits.” She added, “Mirae Asset will continue to provide various programs so that teenagers can approach economics and finance in a friendly way.”

Meanwhile, ‘Mirae Asset Woori Ai TDF’ is a Target Date Fund (TDF) designed to provide funds needed when minor children reach adulthood. It is executed based on an asset allocation strategy that considers the elementary, middle, and high school cycles. In the early stages of investment, it benefits from the accumulation effect through investment assets, and at maturity, when the accumulated amount grows, it increases the proportion of safe assets to pursue the effect of long-term installment investment. The ‘Mirae Asset Woori Ai TDF2035,’ which matures in 2035 and was first launched in June 2023, has recorded an excellent performance with a 5.11% return since inception as of the end of 2023.
