Finance

Early Exposure to Financial Literacy and Decision-Making

JSP introduces students to fundamental financial concepts such as budgeting, investment strategies, risk assessment, and financial planning. Unlike other career clusters, finance-focused simulations help students develop practical money management skills early on. By analyzing case studies or managing virtual investment portfolios, they learn how financial decisions impact businesses and personal wealth.

Understanding of Risk Management and Fraud Detection
Finance professionals must assess risks before making financial decisions. Through JSP, students explore financial risk management by simulating scenarios involving insurance claims, loan approvals, and fraud detection. They learn how financial professionals assess creditworthiness, mitigate investment risks, and identify suspicious transactions. This is unique to finance because it teaches students how financial institutions protect individuals and businesses from financial losses due to fraud, economic downturns, or market volatility.

Experience with Digital Financial Tools and Technologies
Students work with industry-standard financial software such as Excel, QuickBooks, or Bloomberg Terminals, allowing them to analyze financial data, create reports, and manage virtual investment portfolios. This hands-on use of digital tools is a key advantage of finance-focused JSPs, as it prepares students for careers in financial technology (FinTech), accounting, and investment management, where digital financial platforms are essential.

Exposure to Banking and Credit Systems

JSPs in the finance sector allow students to engage in simulated banking activities, such as processing loans, evaluating creditworthiness, and managing interest rates. These experiences provide insights into how banks and financial institutions operate, something exclusive to this career cluster. Students learn about credit scores, loan applications, and the impact of interest rates, helping them develop expertise in consumer finance and lending.

Financial Analysis and Decision-Making

In these simulations, students analyze financial data, interpret balance sheets, and assess business profitability using real-world case studies. At Juvenis Maxime, they evaluate financial risks and performance and recommend strategic decisions. These activities enhance their ability to assess financial health and make data-driven decisions in simulated business scenarios.

Tax Compliance and Planning

In Juvenis Maxime JSP for tax, students work on tax compliance, planning, and reporting. They prepare tax returns, analyze tax liabilities, and interpret tax laws. Through case studies, they identify tax-saving opportunities and assess regulatory risks. This firsthand experience helps students develop problem-solving skills and understand corporate and individual tax obligations.

Audit Procedures and Risk Assessment

Students explore audit procedures by reviewing financial statements, identifying risks, and assessing internal controls. Our JSP for audit includes assessing internal controls, verifying transactions, and evaluating financial statements for accuracy. Through this process, they gain insights into audit planning, substantive testing, and risk mitigation, enhancing their understanding of financial integrity and regulatory standards.

Fraud Detection and Financial Ethics

Through Juvenis Maxime simulated fraud investigations, students identify suspicious financial activities, detect accounting irregularities, and learn about regulatory compliance. They review transaction records, analyze spending patterns, and apply ethical decision-making principles to prevent financial misconduct. The project strengthens their ability to recognize fraudulent behavior and understand the importance of integrity in financial transactions.
