The final stage of the forum will bring together a highly international audience: around 700 participants from more than 40 countries will arrive in the regional centre to take part in this major event.

The Olympiad is being held on the instructions of the President of the Russian Federation. The regional capital is hosting the event for the second consecutive year. According to Dmitri Chernyshenko, preparations for this monumental event are entering the home stretch.

Over 100 different events have been prepared for participants, including roundtables, practical sessions, and opportunities to interact with field experts.

According to the head of Rosfinmonitoring Yuri Chikhanchin, one of the selection stages involved holding national Olympiads:

— For the first time ever we're expecting winners of local national​ Olympiads from Yemen, Cameroon, Libya, Senegal, Sudan, Togo, Tunisia, and Chad to visit us. A Russia–Africa strategic session will be held during the final week. To prepare the students for success, summer and winter schools on financial security have been launched, as well as training centres for national teams from various countries at Siberian Federal University (SFU) in Krasnoyarsk.

Dmitri Afanasyev, Deputy Minister of Science and Higher Education of Russia and head of the Executive Committee, reported on the key events of the Olympiad's final stage. Governor of the Krasnoyarsk Region Mikhail Kotyukov presented a report on the preparations for the finale. The regional head noted that all activities are proceeding according to plan:

— Our top priorities are participant safety, efficient logistics, and comfortable accommodation for the delegations. We want our guests to see us as a modern and welcoming region that is open to young people from all over the world. It is also essential that the Olympiad extends beyond the university campus and becomes an event for the region's residents; alongside the finals, we will host over 60 events for various audiences as part of Financial Literacy Week.
