A Strategic Shift in the Digital Era

After more than 63 years of establishment and development, the Academy of Finance has continuously affirmed its position as one of the leading institutions in training, research, and consultancy in the country's economic and financial sectors.

In the context of the 14th Party Congress Resolution identifying “science, technology, innovation, and digital transformation as the main drivers” for the 2026-2030 development phase, this series of events holds special strategic significance. It also serves as a declaration of the Academy of Finance's spirit of innovation and aspiration for integration in the new era.

The new brand identity aims to affirm the core educational philosophy “Tai – Tam – Chinh”, where: “Tai” represents intelligence and professional competence; “Tam” signifies responsibility and professional ethics; “Chinh” stands for standards, transparency, and social service.

This is not merely a change in logo design or external identity system but a synthesis of tradition and modernity, academic identity, and integration spirit, clearly reflecting the Academy's sustainable development orientation.

A notable highlight is the official introduction of the mascot FINGO – the Scholar Eagle, symbolizing the courage, intelligence, and aspiration to soar high of the Academy of Finance's student generation in the digital age.

Along with the new brand identity, the Academy of Finance officially launched the Electronic Information Portal and Digital Education Ecosystem with a modern, user-friendly interface optimized for multi-platform display.

This is a concrete step towards realizing the comprehensive digital transformation goal in the Academy's management, training, and communication, aiming to build a "Smart Academy" model that promotes transparency and enhances service quality for learners.
