Online Bank Management Contest (OBMC)
An Annual International Contest for Banking Professionals – 24 to 26 June 2014
The Online Bank Management Contest 2014, designed and
conducted by SimArch NV from Belgium, is open to young banking
professionals from commercial banks, financial institutions and
consulting companies operating in Africa.
After the three days, SimArch and its team of experts will assess
the performance of all teams. The winning team is announced one
week after the end of the competition.
Setup of the Online Bank Management Contest
The OBMC is conducted via webinar and an online simulation called
FirstB@nk is used. The contest is scheduled to take place over three
action-packed days, from 24 to 26 June 2014.
During the three days, participants are exposed to webinars by
banking executives and they are challenged as a team to manage a
full-services bank for four financial quarters (one year). Teams have to
decide on their strategy for the bank and make decisions with regard
to risk management, portfolio mix, funding sources, marketing, branch
network, etc.
The OBMC has a customised economic and banking
environment, offering a realistic view of the banking environment in
Africa.
Full details about the profile of who can participate in the
contest as well as how to register a team, can be found at
