Primary and secondary schools in the Republic of North Macedonia are invited to participate in the international competition – the European Money Quiz. This quiz is a project of the European Banking Federation aimed at financial education of students aged 13 to 15.

The European Money Quiz is conducted in two phases:
– the first phase consists of national competitions in each country;
– the second phase is the European finals, in which the winners of the national competitions participate.

In the Republic of North Macedonia, the national competition will be held during Global Money Week (from 16 to 22 March 2026), in Macedonian and Albanian, in two rounds:

– First round: an online competition for the selection of the best teams;
– Second round: the best teams compete for the title “national champions” with physical presence at the premises of the Macedonian Banking Association.

The team consisting of the two best-performing students will represent our country at the European finals, which will take place on 18 and 19 May 2026 in Brussels, Kingdom of Belgium. Each team competes in its native language. The European Banking Federation will award monetary prizes to the schools that win first, second, and third place.

The competitions will be conducted through a dedicated electronic application, Kahoot!, an educational game-based platform.
