Matchy-Match
THIS is an association game in which participants are required to match commonly known financial concepts to figures that reflect their corresponding values.
The Matchy-Match game's objective is to promote a higher degree of familiarity with important financial figures. At the start of the game, participants will be given flash cards showing the concepts and numbers, and they are expected to pair them up correctly. For example, the "Goods and Services Tax (GST)" card will be paired with the "7 per cent" card.
Other concepts tested in the game are the withdrawal age for the Central Provident Fund (CPF), the CPF Minimum Sum, the inflation rate, and the expected rates of return on equity over 10 years and on a risk-free investment product. Also featured is the expected return of a high-grade bond - that is, a bond that has been given the AAA or AA credit quality rating by a bond rating agency such as Standard & Poor's to indicate a relatively low risk of default.
