Prominent Qatari entities that included the Qatar Stock Exchange (QSE), the Qatar Financial Centre (QFC), (QNB), and the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands came together as part of Money Week Qatar 2019, a week-long campaign that is designed to promote financial education among school children.

The initiative comes as part of Global Money Week, a project that was originally launched by Her Majesty Queen Máxima of the Netherlands nine years ago, and has grown to become an annual global initiative that reaches 169 countries and has touched the lives of 32 million students. The campaign aims to raise awareness among school children of the importance of financial education, inclusion and the principles of good financial management.

The first edition of Money Week Qatar was held in 2017, and saw participation from 100 students, gradually growing to become 1,100 students in 2018. This year's edition engaged over 1,500 primary school children from both local and international schools, and included a series of interactive activities such as guest lectures, daily school trips to QSE to understand stock trading, along with a range of other fun and educational activities.
