TA KONTROLL | 2017

Nordea Norway opened a visitor center where school classes can come and play Ta kontroll- Take control, a free learning tool in personal finance.

Ta kontroll is an interactive game for students in 9th grade and up. Through the game, students gain a basic understanding and knowledge of the value of money, income and consumption. The game also gives an insight into the banks’ role in society and some of the professions that exist within the banking industry.

Students get to create their own profile and are assigned a role either as a bank consultant or as a student with a dream. The students are then divided in groups according to their dreams: either to buy an apartment, start a business, give back to the community by building a school in a developing country or going on a road trip with friends. Each of these dreams require savings and a control of personal finance, which they experience in the course of the game.
