Bank of England Competition PDF Print E-mail

On 27th November 2007, four HBS girls, Tanushree Datta, Shivani Jethwa, Dami Akin-Olugbade and Rachel Finesilver took part in the Bank of England's Target 2.0 competition.

We had to prepare a presentation on inflation, explaining its main causes, as well as describing what is happening to inflation currently in the British economy. After our presentation, we were asked questions by a panel of judges about our presentation, and so had to make sure we knew exactly what we were talking about!  We were up against many different schools including Merchant Taylor's, Mill Hill County and The American School in London. Only one school, Dulwich College, got through to the later rounds.  Nonetheless we had a great day nonetheless.
